Default maps have been discussed several times before. Luckily now _you_ can do something about it. ;-) I'll try to find time to look into the default-size-at-startup problem. That's the first thing to solve here. Let's discuss the default maps, what type of map to use, how to get the proper library support compiled in, what Xastir distributions need to have the default map, etc. Any suggestions? -- Curt, WE7U.
