The API key has to be tacked onto the end of the URL and with the current way 
that Xastir handles the .geo files that can't be done without code changes.

About a month ago I did some preliminary work and added an APIKEY field to the 
.geo file and modified map_geo.c, tile_mgmnt.c and map_OSM.c to use it.  It 
worked but I'm not convinced that putting the key in each individual .geo file 
is the best way to go for reasons that escape me right now.   I was busy with 
another project and haven't had time to revisit the changes.
