Binary to Ascii conversion

[Diane Stokes]

Since you are doing an area average in the call to amean, you don't need
to set varying lat and lon ranges before your display.  Instead set lon
and lat (or x and y) to a fixed point.  Eg:
'set x 1'
'set y 1'

If you do so, that "Printing grid" header message should show up only at
the top of the output.
