OpenGrADS Extensions r2 uploaded

[See Hai Ooi]

Dear Mr Arlindo,

     I look forward to the release of your Win32
superpack.  Meanwhile, as regards the documentation,
there is a need of logging in.  Can I just simply
create the user name and password of my own to access
it ?

     Thank you.

Ooi See Hai

(quite functional but not the  same as the native
Grib-2 support in GrADS v2), and support for
displaying shapefiles in GrADS.

documented, including its statistical,
thermodynamical, advection and integration functions -
check it out. The Poisson solver fish has been
improved with functions to compute streamfunction and
velocity potential directly from u and v.

yet work with GrADS v2, neither will it work with
v1.9b4.

for robusteness and ease of use. It now provides
functions fish_psi(u,v) and fish_chi(u,v) for
computing streamfunction/velocity potential from the
wind components.
