[Gstat-info] gstat 2.5.1 on Linux

[Edzer Pebesma]

Andy, these files are in PCRaster format.

On http://ifgiweb.uni-muenster.de/~epebe_01/tif/ I put up the GeoTIFF 
versions of them; move them to the original, or change the name in the 
cmd files.

Doing that, I realize that you may not have linked gstat to gdal (gstat 
-v will tell you); in that case GeoTiff will not work either. You may 
want to use gdal_translate and translate them into asciigrid, and that 
may work natively in gstat.

Hth,
