PyFerret 7.6.0 release
PyFerret v7.6.0 release.
See release notes at https://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/Ferret/documentation/version-76-release-notes
And see the README.md file: https://github.com/NOAA-PMEL/PyFerret/blob/master/README.md
This README file includes instructions for the Anaconda miniconda installation procedure, recommended for both Linux and MacOS systems.
This version adds automatic handling of discrete sampling geometry (DSG), also referred to as ragged-array, NetCDF files. This greatly simplifies the handling and plotting of this type of data. By default PyFerret will use these new capabilities when it detects the data is in this format, although one can turn this off if it interferes in legacy scripts handling this type of data in other ways.
This release also adds the option of using the PySide2 Python package for interfacing to the Qt graphics library for creating displayed plots. PyFerret will use the PySide2 package if it cannot find either PyQt5 or PyQt4.
And, of course, there are a number of minor bug fixes.
