Bugs
Some vanilla metafile interpretors take advantage of shortcuts provided by their CGM generators. In
effect, they are not true CGM interpretors. Although it will still be possible to convert these metafiles
to NCAR format that may be interpreted by NCAR Graphics translators. It may not be the case that the
aforementioned interpreters will be able to translate true vanilla metafiles, such as produced by
ncgm2cgm.Copyright

Description
ncgm2cgm and cgm2ncgm are filters for converting back and forth between NCARComputerGraphicsMetafile
(CGM) and vanilla CGM. ncgm2cgm strips the wrapper from NCAR CGM records while cgm2ncgm restores it. I/O
is done from standard in/out respectively.
