[Xastir-Dev] world shapefile

[James Jefferson]

I thought you all might be interested in a shapefile of the world. I don't 
have the metadata in front of me right now, but I think it is 1:1M scale. 
It's very nice in XASTIR when you are zoomed all of the way out.

Perhaps some can post this to the xastir-user list ... I don't think I'm 
subscribed.

PS - Xastir is running beautifully on my new Mandrake 9.0 install! I was able 
to find packages for xastir + shapelib + imagemagick + proj4. If there is 
interest, I can put together a little document with links to appropriate 
mandrake packages and how to get it all up and running. As usual, major props 
to all of the xastir developers.
