Re: PyNGL & PyNIO version error

Hi Gary,
This is a known bug that will be fixed in the new release which is coming soon. You can fix it with the following modification to the source:
Change:

v = int(d[0]) * 10000 + int(d[1]) * 100 + int(d[2])

to

v = int(d[0]) * 10000 + int(d[1]) * 100 + int(d[2][0])

Note this line occurs both in Ngl.py for PyNGL and in Nio.py for PyNIO.
Jeff's diagnosis is correct. This fix gets rid of the non-numeric characters. It does assume that the minor release number is a single digit.
