[Xastir] Script to cache some maps

[Kurt]

I've never had map caching work.  As soon as I was offline, I get nothing.  I have some of the old 2006 Tiger maps and the 2008 OSM maps from before those servers went off line.  The biggest handicap is a source of maps that can be used off line for Xastir without having to do a bunch of legerdemain to get them to work.

Yes, I know it is bad to download a lot of tile maps, and that is not my
intention, just need a certain area for different APRS events.

I am getting sick of going over the whole course in every zoom level I want
every time I want to use APRS offline. I then have to double check offline
to make sure I didn't miss areas.

Has anybody wrote a script or can point me in the right direction to making
a script? The problem I have with simulating arrow key presses is that I
can't predict how long the maps will take to load.
