Kurt: This works for me (with the latest svn version of basemap and
matplotlib). Does it not work for you?
import pylab as p
from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap as Basemap # use for svn
#from matplotlib.toolkits.basemap import Basemap # use for released version
m = Basemap(llcrnrlon=-119,llcrnrlat=22,urcrnrlon=-64,urcrnrlat=49,\
projection='lcc',lat_1=33,lat_2=45,lon_0=-95,resolution='c')
shp_info = m.readshapefile('citiesx020','cities')
for xy in m.cities:
p.gca().annotate('x',xy)
m.drawcoastlines()
p.show()
