[gradsusr] Spatial Correlation

I would write a separate script that has the scorr function. 

function correlate (args) 
y1=subwrd(args,1) 
y2=subwrd(args,2)
x1=subwrd(args,3)
x2=subwrd(args,4)
>> 'scorr(var.1, var.2, lon=x1, lon=x2, lat=y1, lat=y2)'


Then you can call this function with the box you want.  For example if your box was from 21-22N and -158.5 to -157.5 you could do 

'correlate 21 22 -158.5 -157.5' 

This would save you the trouble of having to enter the everything each time you want to run the correlation.
