[gradsusr] Descriptor file for binary data

[Rekha Bharali]

Hi Ipshita

>From your first mail I got the following information:

(1)The file is a matrix with 110 rows and 52 columns.


But from you recent mail I found

XDEF 1
YDEF 1

I think if your matrix is of size 110 by 52 so please try

XDEF 110
YDEf    52

or whatever your x,y dimension is.
