In the document 4.10 Input Data Formats file:///usr/share/doc/gmt/html/GMT_Docs/node46.html#7130 there is no mention of DMS vs decimal degrees. In fact throughout the GMT docs, users approaching GMT with a handful of Degree Minute Second data feel as if they are using some ancient units that nobody never even mentions anymore. At least somewhere mention what they should do. E.g., "use this simple awk formula to convert DMS to something GMT can read" (and how to convert back.) Contrast this with the proj man page, where DMS is proper attire. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
