[MITgcm-support] filter for cubesphere-grid-corners

Hi, Andrea,

I just compared the tile files. Those that are used in 
fizhi-cs-aqualev20 are different from what I generated from matlab 
codes. Could you please tell me how to generate the new grids with 
location of corners changed? Or could you please generate C64 and C128 
tile files since I need some high resoultion grids?

Thanks a lot!
