PANOPLY
  panoply \PAN-uh-plee\, noun: 1. A splendid or impressive array. [...]


INTRODUCTION
  Panoply is a Java application that allows the user to make plots of data from netCDF, HDF,
  and GRIB datasets. Although its strength is in making longitude-latitude (map) plots, it
  can also make other types of georeferenced plots, including keograms and Hovmoeller diagrams;
  general 2D color contour plots; and line plots. Data arrays may be "sliced" from larger
  multidimensional arrays (aka, variables). A large selection of global map projections is
  available for lon-lat figures. Plot images may be saved to disk in bitmap graphic formats
  or in PDF.

  Panoply requires that a Java 11 (or later) Runtime Environment be installed on your computer.
  Please read the accompanying JAVA_11 README file for details.


DOWNLOADING
  The current version of Panoply, along with other information about the application, may
  always be found at
  https://www.giss.nasa.gov/tools/panoply/


INSTALLING AND RUNNING THE PANOPLY FOR MAC OS PACKAGE
  The complete Panoply package for macOS should, after uncompression,
  include the following items:

  - Double-clickable Panoply application.
  - This README file.
  - A JAVA_11 README file.

  To run Panoply on macOS, just double-click on the Panoply application.

TROUBLE-SHOOTING
  There have been some reports that Panoply for macOS fails to launch on recent Macs built with
  "M1 silicon" ARM chips. Please see the JAVA_11.txt file accompanying this README for more info
  and for possible workarounds.

  Some users who have a second display attached to their Mac have reported Panoply does not
  respond after they select an input file via the filechooser dialog. If you experience this,
  please download and try the version labeled (JFC), which uses the Java filechooser.

COLOR TABLES AND CONTINENTS FILES
  Beginning with version 4, Panoply's "standard" selection of color tables and map overlays
  is built into the application. Additional color tables and map overlays may be opened for
  a single session or added to your favorites library for continued use. See the Panoply
  website for for such optional support files.
