[gradsusr] Date and time functions in GrADS

[James T. Potemra]

Hi Brian,

Are you doing this with an open dataset?  If so, you might be able to 
take advantage of the time step.  For example, if your file has a time 
step of 1 hour,

time1 = 1
'set t 'time1
'q time'
date1 = subwrd(result,3)
'set t 'time1 + 36
'q time'
date2 = subwrd(result,3)
say time1', 'time2
