29 <P>Reads a new SIGMET (aka nsig) file and returns a pointer to the structure
30 <I>Radar</I>. The input file is specified by the string <I>infile</I>.
31 If <I>infile</I> is NULL, then stdin is read. The input file may be compressed.
32 If the data is compressed, it is passed through the GNU <B>gunzip</B> filter.
33 Thus, compressed data can be any format that <B>gzip</B> understands. Two
34 versions of SIGMET files exist: Version 1 files, and Version 2 files.
35 RSL_nsig_to_radar is used to read version 1 files, and, RSL_nsig2_to_radar
36 is used to read version 2 files.</P>
38 <P>The radar structure is, essentially, an array of Volumes. The number
39 and type of volumes allocated is automatically determined from the input
45 <P>Upon successful completion, RSL_nsig_to_radar returns a pointer to the
46 structure <B>Radar</B>. Otherwise, NULL is returned and errno is set.
