I just noticed a slight quirk with asciiread. I don't think this is new to
v6, but I just noticed because of the new _FillValues.
If you specify the dimensions that you're reading, e.g.:
z1 = asciiread("data.asc",(/5,3/),"float")
z2 = asciiread("data.asc",(/4,2/),"float")
then it attaches the _FillValue automatically. But if you don't specify the
dimensions:
z3 = asciiread("data.asc",-1,"float")
then it doesn't attach a _FillValue. Very minor inconvenience to manually
attach it, but maybe it'd be easy to fix--or at least to document.
Cheers,
Carl
