Specifying an MDO Variable When Reading a Message
The following NCL procedure uses the WRITE verb to send ordinary variables from
one NCL process to another NCL process (MSGPROC) that specifies an MDO variable
when reading a message:
zex1622n: PROCEDURE
/* Sends ordinary variables */
/* mapped by $NCL, and text */
&1 = x
&2 = y
&3 = z
WRITE ARGS DATA=a b c
END zex1622n
