Creating an animantion

[Manfredi Manizza <M.Manizza@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ferreters,
I tryied to make an animation in Ferret following the manual. I did it in
this way. I run a first jnlscript, which is supposed to be craeting gif
figures, calling a second script which producese the plots by the "fill"
command. It should produces 12 images, one for every monthly output.
It seems to be working until the 11th and then it gives me the
following error message:

**ERROR: command syntax: ~


Also instead of producing files called whirl-1, whirl-2, etc.,
it produces names like : whirl-'l'.gif.~1~, whirl-'l'.gif.~2~ and so on.


Here are the scripts:

FIRST SCRPT

repeat /l=1:12 (go diff_ice_4animation_2000_int.jnl
'l';frame/file=whirl-'l'.gif)

SECOND SCRIPT

use diff_icecover_2000_int.nc

let diceperc = diffice*100
