1.1.13 Overview of </A><A NAME="tex2html731"
  HREF="http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu"><B>GMT</B></A> 4.1.3 [June-1, 2006]
</H2>

<P>
Changes in <A NAME="tex2html732"
  HREF="http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu"><B>GMT</B></A> 4.1.3 are relatively minor and predominantly bug fixes.  However, a few enhancements
have been made to overcome limitations in the previous versions:

<P>

<OL>
<LI>Added the Hughes 1980 ellipsoid for projection support for DMSP SSM/I grid products.
</LI>
<LI><A NAME="tex2html733"
  HREF="../man/grdfft.html"><I><B>grdfft</B></I></A><A NAME="5960"></A> has an extended <B>-F</B> option to allow for either Gaussian- or
cosine-tapered filtering.
</LI>
<LI><A NAME="tex2html734"
  HREF="../man/psscale.html"><I><B>psscale</B></I></A><A NAME="5966"></A> now has a <B>-Q</B> option so that logarithmic color scales and annotations
can be handled properly.
</LI>
<LI><A NAME="tex2html735"
  HREF="../man/makecpt.html"><I><B>makecpt</B></I></A><A NAME="5972"></A> and <A NAME="tex2html736"
  HREF="../man/grd2cpt.html"><I><B>grd2cpt</B></I></A><A NAME="5977"></A> have a new <B>-M</B> option to allow the background, foreground, and
NaN-colors to be assigned using the <A NAME="tex2html737"
  HREF="http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu"><B>GMT</B></A> defaults instead of the settings in the master CPT file. 
</LI>
<LI><A NAME="tex2html738"
  HREF="../man/mgd77list.html"><I><B>mgd77list</B></I></A><A NAME="5986"></A> in the <I>mgd77</I><A NAME="5990"></A> supplement has new option <B>-Q</B> to specify limits on
speed and azimuths for output records.
</LI>
</OL>

<P>
Below is a list of previous problems (some accidentily introduced in <A NAME="tex2html739"
  HREF="http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu"><B>GMT</B></A> 4.1.2)
that we have identified and corrected in the current release:

<P>
<DL>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html740"
  HREF="../man/gmt_grdio.c.html"><I><B>gmt_grdio.c</B></I></A><A NAME="5998"></A></STRONG></DT>
<DD>: Bug in <TT>GMT_grd_shift</TT> for gridline-registered grids; this function is used in
<A NAME="tex2html741"
  HREF="../man/grdedit.html"><I><B>grdedit</B></I></A><A NAME="6004"></A> to rotate grids of 360-degree longitudinal extent. Also added better testing for subsets of global (0-360) grids.
</DD>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html742"
  HREF="../man/gmt_init.c.html"><I><B>gmt_init.c</B></I></A><A NAME="6009"></A></STRONG></DT>
<DD>: <TT>GMT_PS_init</TT> was called after -PAR=val had been decoded, resetting
the <I>PostScript</I>-related parameters to their default settings.
</DD>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html743"
  HREF="../man/gmt_support.c.html"><I><B>gmt_support.c</B></I></A><A NAME="6016"></A></STRONG></DT>
<DD>: <TT>GMT_set_xy_domain</TT> padded region for pixel instead of gridline node registration,
which could cause SEGV in <A NAME="tex2html744"
  HREF="../man/xyz2grd.html"><I><B>xyz2grd</B></I></A><A NAME="6022"></A> if (<I>x,y</I>) was less than half the grid-spacing outside region.
</DD>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html745"
  HREF="../man/blockmean.html"><I><B>blockmean</B></I></A><A NAME="6027"></A></STRONG></DT>
<DD>: The <B>-C</B> option got reversed in 4.1.2 - now fixed.
</DD>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html746"
  HREF="../man/blockmedian.html"><I><B>blockmedian</B></I></A><A NAME="6033"></A></STRONG></DT>
<DD>: The <B>-C</B> option got reversed in 4.1.2 - now fixed.
</DD>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html747"
  HREF="../man/grdcontour.html"><I><B>grdcontour</B></I></A><A NAME="6039"></A></STRONG></DT>
<DD>: The <B>-C</B> option with a non-cpt file failed to read due to lack of proper if-test.
</DD>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html748"
  HREF="../man/grdedit.html"><I><B>grdedit</B></I></A><A NAME="6045"></A></STRONG></DT>
<DD>: The <B>-S</B> option was backwards and tested <I>w-e</I>=360; should be <I>e-w</I>=360.
</DD>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html749"
  HREF="../man/grdimage.html"><I><B>grdimage</B></I></A><A NAME="6051"></A></STRONG></DT>
<DD>: Fixed bug introduced by <TT>GMT_get_inc</TT> in 4.1.2. Internal projected
grid never took node_offset from input grid.
</DD>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html750"
  HREF="../man/grdmask.html"><I><B>grdmask</B></I></A><A NAME="6057"></A></STRONG></DT>
<DD>: Polygons with zig-zag shape would sometimes cause a node exactly
on a polygon vertex to be considered inside. Radius was reset to 0 after <B>-S</B><I>radius</I> was assigned.
</DD>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html751"
  HREF="../man/grdvector.html"><I><B>grdvector</B></I></A><A NAME="6063"></A></STRONG></DT>
<DD>: The <B>-A</B> option was not properly initiated.
</DD>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html752"
  HREF="../man/psbasemap.html"><I><B>psbasemap</B></I></A><A NAME="6069"></A></STRONG></DT>
<DD>: The <B>-L</B> option did not properly parse the optional :label:&lt;just&gt; part.
</DD>
<DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html753"
  HREF="../man/pslegend.html"><I><B>pslegend</B></I></A><A NAME="6075"></A></STRONG></DT>
<DD>: If the <B>M</B> (for map scale) was used, the <B>-R</B> and <B>-J</B> options would be reset.
Also prevented the undoing of <B>-X</B> and <B>-Y</B> at the end of the program.
