 \subsubsection{MNC output files}
 
 Unlike the \texttt{mdsio} output, the \texttt{mnc}--generated output
 is usually (though not necessarily) placed within a subdirectory with
-a name such as \texttt{mnc\_test\_\${DATE}\_\${SEQ}}.  The files
-within this subdirectory are all in the ``self-describing'' netCDF
-format and can thus be browsed and/or plotted using tools such as:
-\begin{itemize}
-\item \texttt{ncdump} is a utility which is typically included
-  with every netCDF install:
-  \begin{rawhtml} <A href="http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/"> \end{rawhtml}
-\begin{verbatim}
-http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/
-\end{verbatim}
-  \begin{rawhtml} </A> \end{rawhtml} and it converts the netCDF
-  binaries into formatted ASCII text files.
-
-\item \texttt{ncview} utility is a very convenient and quick way
-  to plot netCDF data and it runs on most OSes:
-  \begin{rawhtml} <A href="http://meteora.ucsd.edu/~pierce/ncview_home_page.html"> \end{rawhtml}
