[gradsusr] amax Function

[Jennifer Adams]

The amax() function returns a single number, not a grid. Try something like this instead:

'd amax(gust10m,g)'
val=subwrd(result,4)
'q gxinfo'
xlims=sublin(result,3)
ylims=sublin(result,4)
xpos=subwrd(xlims,4)
ypos=subwrd(ylims,6)
'set string 1 tl'
'draw string 'xpos+0.1' 'ypos-0.1' area max='val

This is what I have in my script, which completes without an error, but my variable 'maxgust' does not seem to populate with anything.
