[gradsusr] vertical cross sections

Try to use the command "collect" to collect data that interpolated from
grid point data to station data. (via the "gr2stn" function)

For example:

'set zlog on'
'set lev 1000 100'
* Make Z to be the only  varying dimension
'set x 1'
'set y 1'
* Empty the Collection 1
'collect 1 free'
lon1 = 119.61
lon2 = 124.974
lat1 = 25.35
lat2 = 25.4
*
lon  = lon1
while(lon <= lon2)
    lat = lat1 + (lat2-lat1)*(lon-lon1)/(lon2-lon1)
    'collect 1 gr2stn(pv,'lon','lat')'
* the follow increment will affect the computation efficiency greatly
    lon=lon+0.1
endwhile
'set lon 119.61 124.974'
'set gxout shaded'
'd coll2gr(1,-u)'
