Hello,

This message only concerns users of NCO.
There is a new NCO, nco-1.1.25, available from 
http://www.cgd.ucar.edu/cms/nco

This version fixes a bug with ncra and ncrcat which could, under
some unusual circumstances, cause the last record of a coordinate
variable to be omitted from the output file (ncrcat) or not included
in the average (ncra). Therefore I recommend all users of these 
operators to upgrade to the new version.

This version also includes a new feature: alphabetization of output in 
ncks. Changelog summary appears below.

NCAR users only: Binaries have been upgraded on the usual machines---

Changes in nco-1.1.25

        * Fixed bug where ncrcat and ncra omitted the last slice of the
        record dimension when -F (Fortran indexing) was user-specified AND
        user-specified hyperslab information was provided for some
        dimensions BUT not for the record dimension. This bug only
        affected ncrcat and ncra and only under these conditions. Thanks
        to John Sheldon 
        
        * Added -a switch to ncks for alphabetizing the output list.
