Convert .nc to GRADS.

[Peter Colarco]

I don't know about the Windows platform.  If the netcdf file is not
formatted correctly (i.e., COARDS compliant) then probably GRADS
needs to be told how to read it.  In that case, sdfopen will not work
and you need to write a data descriptor file.  See: http://
grads.iges.org/grads/gadoc/SDFdescriptorfile.html
