Hi Kwan,

re:
> I comiled the program.  But it still could not assign MISS correctly.

This is very strange.  The code that checks for missing values (as specified
by the MISS= keyword) must be off just a bit (e.g., -9999.000001 or 
-9998.9999999,
etc.) making the comparison inexact.  If the values were integers (not floating
point), the conversion might work as it should.

Just to make sure... the version of txt2md.k being used _is_ the newly built
one, correct?

> is the SSEC version?

No.  I modify/add to the SSEC version to create the Unidata version.  The
big difference between the two is the support for doing unit conversions
through the UNIT= line).

Cheers,

Tom
