How about just extending the functionality of the "annotate"? I
believe it should be quite straight forward since "annotate" already
support "offset points". And "points" in matplotlib is dpi
independent.
However, I think calling "annotate" for an offset text is a bit
inconvenient for now.

When you call text(...), a Text object is created and added to a list of
things (Artists) to be drawn, but no drawing occurs (unless using pyplot
in interactive mode) until a draw(), show(), or savefig() command is
given. That's "draw t
What is meant by "draw time"?
For most purposes, I think that I'd want to specify an offset in font
units (points). If offsets are specified in units of pixels, then the
results would be display-dependent, and achieving display-independent
results would require some additional fiddling. I wou

Ah. It sounds as though one must consider the scale of the map, and
then choose these offsets so that the text falls near but not too near
the marker. It would be great if one could specify the text offsets in
units of the font size rather than in units of map distance.

The proj library used by Basemap transforms lon, lat to meters, so
The online documentation at URL=
http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/Maps has an example that uses
plt.text as follows:
plt.text(xpt+5,ypt+5,name)
Why is the offset 5?
