Description (last modified by peifer)

According to aaigriddataset.cpp, line 426, small files with less than 100 bytes do not look like an AI ASCII grid file. This results in into ERROR 4 when trying to read the following legitimate, but only 62 byte large file:

$ cat test.asc
ncols     1
nrows     1
xllcorner 0
yllcorner 0
cellsize  1
0

$ gdalinfo test.asc
ERROR 4: `test.asc' not recognised as a supported file format.

gdalinfo failed - unable to open 'test.asc'.

Corrected in trunk (r22982). I don't really think this is important enough to bother backporting to 1.8.

Thanks for the fix which works as expected.
