[gradsusr] grads error while using arwpost .ctl files

[Jeff Duda]

Jonathan,
I don't see a PDEF line in either control file, but since co plots in
ctl_plevs.ctl as you said, then I don't see anything immediately wrong with
either control file or the script, but I do see the differences between
them.  Perhaps the fact that you are using some positive and some negative
longitudes in one control file and all positive longitudes in the other is
making a difference, although I see you have set lon to be consistent with
the control file you are using.  Is there any error message that
accompanies the display?  Does co display if you just open the bb_plevs.ctl
file and immediately enter 'd co'?  If there is no error message I would
tend to think there was a mis-specification of your lat/lon values either
in the control file or in your script.
