SYNOPSIS

     gmtinfo leg-ids


DESCRIPTION

     gmtinfo reports the minimum/maximum coordinates, year of the
     cruise,  leg  id,  number of records, the number of gravity,
     magnetics, and bathymetry points found, and  the  start/stop
     dates  for the leg.  All the information is written to stan-
     dard output on one line so that it is easy to use awk to add
     up numbers etc.

          list_of_legs`  to  pass  all  the  legnames in the file
          list_of_legs.
