[GEMPAK #BRI-804807]: bug in gplt

Mark,

All of the CED model grids stop one grid point interval short of 360 degrees 
and this is how NAWIPS was developed and tested; the duplicate column is added 
by the GPLT code, if necessary.  A workaround to this, if your data does 
stretch the full 360 degrees, is to use gdcfil and gddiag to create a grid that 
does not extend 360 degrees and let the code that already exists add the column 
when needed. 

Hope this helps,

Michael
