I think it's a nice system, at a glance you can pick out the numbers, and there is no mental math to add back some number of missing 0s. > > ideas! > > I'm blocked with the IHO text numbers (ps.output don't draw). In the > horizontal lines could be 4750/000 (metres below) or 4ºN/23.23' (minutes > below) but how can I draw in vertical lines? Any idea? extend grid lines outward past the map border (ensure perpendicular for geogrid?) and use that as the dividing line? or use the pipe '|' symbol as a text object in some standard font? The xref,yref from ps.map's "labels" command should show how to justify and offset text items.
