griddesc convenience #122

Closed barronh closed 2 years ago

barronh commented 2 years ago

The format 'griddesc' is very convenient for creating new files, but there are two major limitations. First, the time-independent file type creates problems in helper functions leading to failures. Second, the griddesc content must exist on disk even thought sometimes it is easier to store it inline. Can we make it easier to use as a template?
