Salah,

Within the last week or so I extended the ASCII Grid
(AAIGRID) driver to support putting the NODATA keyword
in the output .hdr file.  So, if you are building from source,
do grab the latest CVS snapshot.

Note, I emit the keyword NODATA, rather than NODATA_value.
I'm not sure why both exist, but the reader will accept either.
However, the whitepaper I have, and allmost all the examples
just use NODATA so I had the writer produce that.

Best regards,
