bl_avg.pro

uses rebin to average the data, faster that moment

bl_sign.pro

Return 1, 0, -1 for pos, zero, neg

cdf_vars.pro

return the names of the variables in a cdf file

plot 2d data using tv instead of contour, named after the equilivant procedure in matlab

imagesc2.pro

plot 2d data using tv instead of contour, named after the equilivant procedure in matlab

interp2d_click.pro

Contour plot must be plotted with both /xstyle, /ystyle keywords set and don't try with a log scale, this could be added in the future as well
