[MITgcm-support] Re: mnc and netcdf

[Jonathan Mitchell]

Hi Ed-

Thanks, that seemed to do the trick for the verification run in the 
example.  I was able to compile and run the Held-Suarez benchmark as 
well.
I gave "genmake2" the flag "-enable=mnc", which I think is the netCDF 
I/O package.  But I'm still getting the other binary file format.  
Could you tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Best,
Jonathan
