README.1ST

The program 'wgrib' is placed into the public domain.  While you could 
legally do anything you want with the code, telling the world that you 
wrote it would be uncool.  Selling it would be really uncool.  The code 
was written for NMC/NCAR Reanalysis and may not work GRIB files from other 
sources.  The code, as usual, has no warranty.  Use at your own risk.
