[Xastir] Making Maps

Hi Folks,

I get a  "latitude out of bounds error" when I run inf2geo.pl using the
following .inf file

 57.209N, 2.442W
57.092N, 2.049W
Aberdeen Area 1146 x 663

I used decimal degrees DD.dddd but the error suggests I should have used
decimal minutes.

An entry from a downloaded file is in "53.1.4N" and I'm a bit confussed by
the periods (full stops) - does that read  as "53 Degrees 1.4 Minutes N"

Could somone confirm what format I should use when writting the INF, total
newbie here so any help warmly recieved.

Many thanks & 73,
Mike GM1WKR
