[gradsusr] contours not plotting

[John Wilson]

Thanks Jennifer. I was almost certainly wrong in having stated this 
(also) happened with GrADS 2.0.2.

But in any case, it's still a problem with 2.1.a3.

I'm not sure how to update X11. I am regular about installing the 
updates to openSUSE 13.2. Goin ginto YaST (the package manager etc.) and 
searching for X11 there are many, many entries so I don't know which to 
target for reinstallation. Thanks, John.
