Major bug fixes in 3.3.1

Since GMT 3.3 was released in early June 1999, several dumb mistakes were caught by alert users. The most severe of these are listed in Table 1.4.


 
Table 1.4: Bugs in GMT version 3.3
File Bug
gmt_map.c Mindless insistance on $\vert y\vert \leq 90$ applied even for
  non-geographic data in gridlines.
  Left-right conic boundary x-value routines not implemented.
gmt_stat.c PLM in grdmath  and gmtmath  had bug in loop over m.
gmt_support.c CPT files with gray-value columns only did not
  get processed correctly (e.g. example 04).
grdview.c -Qs messed up Fore- and Back-ground colors.
pstext.c -M with a single-line paragraph gave PostScript error.
psxy.c Needed a ``stroke'' operator after drawing error bars.
  -E with no symbols gave SEGV. Now, -E with no xy
  is taken to mean -Exy (or -Eyx, when -: is set).
psxy[z].c -SV[]n norm did not work, now fixed.
  -SE would scale axes incorrectly if MEASURE_UNIT $\neq$ INCH.
xyz2grd.c When -S was set the fopen modes were not set to
  rb and wb and hence i/o would fail under WIN32.
-Js A new implementation of the stereographic projection
  fixes a problem with optimizing code under WIN32.
