    When I type sample data to calculate magnetic value as same as Example of
    usage.
    I typed --> 2012-01-01 "16d46'33N" "3d00'34W" 300
    but the error message is --> ERROR: Missing numbers in seconds component of
    "16d46'33N"
    What is wrong?

    The DOS command shell has different quoting rules from Unix
    shells. With DOS, use one of

    2012-01-01 16d46'33^"N 3d00'34^"W 300
    2012-01-01 16d46'33N 3d00'34W 300
    2012-01-01 16:46:33N 3:00:34W 300

    (The rules are described with GeoConvert --help; see the section
    QUOTING). I'll change the example to use the colon notation,
    since that works the same way with Windows and Unix shells.
