[Xastir] Basic Maps for Xastir

[John Kraus]

I think we are over analyzing the problem.  All I see that is currently 
lacking is a simple set of basic maps. The Dos maps are very lightweight 
347 kilobytes (NOT mega) total for world and regional US coverage. 
Compressed they are only 221 KB.

All the command line options and GUI changes to enable the user to hide or 
get rid of them is silly.

While I am all for making the new user experience better What is the 
problem with including a minimal set of dos maps in the archive in such a 
way the they are defaulted on initial start?  The user can easily change it 
if desired.

I mean lets get realistic the first thing you do with a new install is, 
setup the program with call, location, and (drum roll please) your 
preferred maps.  Who cares if it starts with a blank map space verses some 
simple maps most are going to change it anyway.

The minimal set that I would like to see is in a zip archive at:

Take a look.

You don't even have to install them to the hard drive both the zip archive 
and the uncompressed files fit on a floppy with room to spare.
