rcols/wcols users:

I just added support to wcols for 2-D pdls and
discovered that it was not the inverse operation
to rcols---which I think it should be.

The rcols implementation uses dim(0) for input
columns for the 1-D inputs, but dim(1) for the
multi-column inputs.

The wcols implementation uses dog on the 2-D
input pdls and then does the original wcols
output so effectively, both cases use dim(0).

My thought is to modify the rcols 2-D support
so that the columns in the file always to to
dim(0) in the pdls.  That would be consistent
with wcols usage and with the general idea of
things happening on dim(0) and threading on
higher dims---not that we thread with [rw]cols
at this time.

This also makes the rcols consistent with the
original get_data() routine by Maggie which
motivated the development of 2-D support.

Cheers,
Chris
