Installation

• Ruby 1.8 or 1.9 (Ruby 1.6 support was given up to use DateTime)

• NArray: (perhaps 0.5.7 or later required) a multi-dimensional numeric array class for ruby.

• Misc (ver.0.0.4 or later required) Collection of miscellaneous common basic libraries for Ruby programming.

• NArrayMiss (ver.1.1.2 or later required) a multi-dimensional numeric array that handles data missing.
  (at this moment, not used heavily, and GPhys is not tested well for the use with NArrayMiss)

• RubyNetCDF (ver 0.5.2 or later; perhaps 0.5.1 is also ok, but I have not checked)
  The Ruby interface of the NetCDF library.

• RubyDCL (ver 1.2.1 or later) (Needed if you use GPhys applications for visualization) The Ruby interface of the DCL graphic library
