# This is a general array importer header file which will import the data
# in "temp_wind.lis". This data is on a regular grid of longitude and latitude.
# There are 144 longitude points, and 73 latitude points. At each location there
# is a value for temperature (scalar) and wind velocity (2-vector).
# The layout keyword describes how the data are formatted. The first number
# is the number of characters to ignore before reading the first data value.
# The second number is the number of characters for the temperature. The
# third number is the number of characters to skip before finding the
# wind value, and in this case is 0. The fourth number is the number of
# characters for each component of the 2-vector for wind.
# The majority keyword indicates that the data is organized by column
# majority, meaning that the first dimension (longtitude) varies fastest.
# That is, the data values for the first longitude and latitude position are
# read, then the data values for the second longitude and first latitude are
# read, and so on. The interleaving keyword indicates that the temperature
# and wind fields are interleaved. The header keyword indicates how many
# lines at the top of the file to skip before reading the data, and the
# positions keyword gives the longitude origin and delta, and the latitude
# origin and delta for the grid.
