Hi Lyndon

I have a new problem in setting gxout shaded. if i give this command for
the above file its saying error gxout shad. but my model gives a grads
plotting system called GrADSncPlot.
./bin/GrADSNcPlot input/test_001_ICBC.1990060100.nc
ga-> q file
ga-> set gxout shaded
ga-> set mpdset hires
ga-> set cint 2
ga-> d ts
ga-> c
ga-> set lon 10
ga-> set lat 43
ga-> set t 1 last
ga-> d ts

These are the codes given in the manual to use it. When I set gxout to
shaded here im not getting the error message and its working fine. But
getting error message if I open in sdfopen and do this. What should be the
problem? I'll be grateful if you can help me.
