Ray,
    I'll use one of the other drivers as guide, so it should
be consistent.

    Hmm I was going to see if I should update the on-line
doc on the GDAL formats page, but I see that the Terraingen
format is not listed (although there is a reference to
Terragen in the Leveler page).  Ray, if you do the write-up,
I'll be happy to edit it for my changes...
