NAME:           field info  - produce GEOM text containing information 
                              about a field

AUTHOR:    Kathleen M. Dyer, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory

TYPE:           renderer

INPUTS:         field scalar
                If ndim doesn't equal nspace, the field must be irregular.

OUTPUTS:        geom

PARAMETERS:   Name         Type       Default     Min    Max
              I Min        toggle       on
              I Max        toggle       on
              J Min        toggle       on
              J Max        toggle       on
              K Min        toggle       on
              K Max        toggle       on
              Data Min     toggle       on
              Data Max     toggle       on
              Text Height  float       0.055      0.0    0.5


DESCRIPTION:
   FIELD INFO calculates the maxima and minima of the field data
and of the grids. If the field has more than three dimensions, grid information
is obtained for only the first three.  The information is used to produce GEOM
text objects.
   The min/max parameters allow individual objects to be toggles on or off.  
The "Text Height" parameter sets the height of the GEOM text as a fraction of the
window height.
