The format of `.rmd` files are markdown files with the ability run R code and now most recently Python code. I wouldn't have asked if the Python ability wasn't available...

@jwpeterson Hmm. I'll do some further investigation as to what's happening. Thanks.

@jwpeterson actually just replicating the configure command given by CIVET. It should default to libmesh provided netcdf. EDIT: ahh didn't catch `-lnetcdf` in the linking flags.

@dschwen Looks like this passes all tests. Have been able to build with an external netcdf on my local machine.

@roystgnr This is what confused me about the original netcdf.m4 where we don't specify any libs to link when using `contrib/netcdf/4`. Would it be better to only specify `NETCDF_LIBRARY` if...

> Yeah, we had that hardcoded in Makefile.am, whenever LIBMESH_ENABLE_NETCDF and LIBMESH_ENABLE_NETCDF_V4 are defined. ... which hasn't yet been changed, and is another problem, no? Exactly what I was thinking...

@wangcj05 I'm having trouble finding where we read files in the code that still has access to the RunInfo node.

@wangcj05 This could be the place I need to add it. My only question is are there files that won't go into Models that we need to check different directories...

I ran into this issue today again with the most recent version of RAVEN. It appears to still be sneaking its way in there sometimes.

I'm not sure, I'm looking more into it. Today, it was the BOM character `\ufeff` that was appearing at the beginning of the file after the person I was working...
