[gradsusr] script failing?

[Jeffrey Duda]

Mason,
Three suggestions:
1a) Remove time from quotes in the while loop statement
1b) time may be a default variable in Grads scripting.  Use a different
symbol to represent that variable.  Lots of times I use 'tt'
2) Remove the semicolon at the end
3) When you use printim, make sure to include the x and y sizes as well as
the output type.  See
http://www.iges.org/grads/gadoc/gradcomdprintim.htmlfor instructions
on that command.
