Hi Doug,

What do you need help with? What problem are you having with the maps?

It sounds like you've found some maps. What kind of maps are they and where 
did you get them? Did you compile Xastir from source, or did you find a 
pre-compiled binary?

Generally, to install maps, put them in the '/usr/local/xastir/maps/' 
directory, or a sub-directory under it. As for the format of maps, the stock 
Xastir compile (without any of the extra library functions built-in) can 
handle MacAPRS/WinAPRS/APRSdos maps and PocketAPRS maps.

Does your installation of Xastir include of the ImageMagick, 
libtiff/libgeotiff, or shapelib libraries? Those really open the doors on 
usable map formats.
