Hi,
I've been trying (unsuccessfully) to have nmap2 display station names on
a map. The program seems hard coded to display station I.D. I've tried
creating sample files and edited $GEMTBL/nmap/mapovl.nmap to refer to
that file. Nmap expects the first column data(STID) won't exceed 8
character length(won't display anything for higher character words).
Unlike the old Garp program, there doesn't seem to be an option to
choose the third column data in $GEMTBL/stns/cities.tbl (station name).
I was hoping to have the station name(up to 15 characters long)
displayed for a public display.
Anyone ever fiddle with this problem?
James
