NCL (NCAR Command Language) is a popular language in the field of Earth science. It processes and displays scientific data efficiently. .
ncl-mode
NOTE: There are two version of ncl.el. One is the official version by NCL folks which contains only ncl.el. The forked version contains few fixes to ncl.el and and ncl-doc el and other goodies to be used by other Emacs packages
Basic Setup
To activate ncl-mode automatically for all files with an extension ".ncl" add add the following your .emacs
(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\.ncl$" . ncl-mode) auto-mode-alist))
(autoload 'ncl-mode "~/bin/ncl.el")
ncl-doc-mode
ncl-doc minor mode helps you read NCL documentation from UCAR website
Basic Setup
to start ncl-doc-mode for each ncl buffer add the following your .emacs
(require 'ncl-doc)
(add-hook 'ncl-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(ncl-doc-minor-mode 1)))
Usage
- [C-c C-s] (or M-x ncl-doc-query-at-point)
- This function does few things.
- 1) It prompts for a string/keyword and collects a given string
- 2) It tries to find a URL for the given string
- + if it finds URL for the string call the browser to open that URL
