One might consider other applications, such as Ferret, which would let you slice and plot the datasets, as well as listing the numbers. > For example, my ~/.mailcap file has the line > application/postscript; ghostview %s It is likely that you already have a mime-type called "application/x-netcdf", which applies to files with the extension .nc or .cdf. In that case, you can add application/x-netcdf; ncdump %s to your .mailcap. If x-netcdf is undefined, you will need a file called .mime.types. A copy is appended at the end of this letter.
