I should mention that while a little pre-alpha work has gone into building GpsDrive for Win32 lately, it is essentially a *NIX program. It relies on Gpsd, which states on their homepage "No, we don't support Windows — get a better operating system." [RMS] While not directly affecting the running of d.out.gpsdrive (to create backdrop tiles), it does mean that if it was excluded from the MS-Windows build I doubt anyone would notice much. semi-related-- does anyone know of a libgis function that will return the current projection+coordinate's convergence angle WRT true north? A method to find that with the `proj` program is given here: http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/Ps.map_scripts#Creating_a_fancy_North_Arrow Hamish _______________________________________________ grass-dev mailing list grass-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-dev
