[gradsusr] Grads on Macs vs. Linux Machines

Hi Marjahn,

      It's more likely that the two machines have different endianness 
(the bits of each
byte are ordered oppositely; see 
http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/unix3/mac/ch04_03.htm)
or perhaps byte size (one machine is 32-bit and the other 64-bit). Such 
differences helped
motivate the creation of formats like netCDF.  (One can share netCDF 
data via "sdfwrite".)

Cheers,
Rick
