[Therion] Absolute Clino reading

[Andrew Atkinson]

Hello

I have been forced to use a total station for some of the cave surveys I
am doing due to the amount of metal/electricity in the cave.

The total station records absolute angles, (in degrees and minutes)
which therion does not process. So 320 should be interpreted as -40

therion: error -- Entrance.th [53] -- gradient reading out of range --
321:49

however a quick check and survex does, but gives a warning, should
Therion not also do this, it would save me having to do a tedious
conversion.

(Survex does not understand degrees and minutes but that is not really
relevant)
