Yep that worked! Have managed to install apifun 0.4.1 and sciNetCDF
The only difference with the atomsGui route seems to be that it
automatically sets the version for the Scilab 5.5.xx and also made a
new toolbar button (toolboxes). But apifun tests worked.
Thanks for the guidance; got there in the end :) I will also let our
IT guys know.
