ncargf77 -r8 -i4

I'm trying to make some plots from the double-precison data produced in
SUN Ultra2 with f77 -r8 -i4 compiler, but it doesn't work after compiled
by ncargf77 -r8 -i4. Here is my question: Can Ncar Graphic produce plots
from double-precison data directly?So far,I have to transfer the data to
single-precison first then make plots. Any advice?

Thank you,

Helin Wei

    I think you are stuck having to convert to single precision.
To get the routines to accept double precision data, the
ncar graphics low level utilities would have to be rebuilt
with the above compiler options and they would then not
work for single precision. However an NCAR graphics
developer at UCAR might have a trick to use double
precision arguments that I have not thought of.
