To enable PyNGL (on ZMAW Linux ia32/x64 and solaris10) you have to type {{{ module load PyNGL/1.2.0 }}} Please note, that Nio should be on the top of the list, e.g. {{{ import Nio from osgeo import gdal import pylab as pl }}} |

A basic system for scientific computing consists of Python, ipython, numpy/scipy, pylab, and an editor of your choice
Editor (a nice editor for Windows user, if you don't like to install xemacs)
The python(x,y) distribution contains all that above.
