It would be nice to add an fcolor (fill color) argument to the 'border'
option, in order to switch from white to any color the background of a map
composition.

Thank you,
Vincent

bottom-most layer

Vincent suggests:
{{{
"0 0 width height box
stroke "
at the beginning of the ps file.
}}}

Comment (by vincent):

Sorry, I did it in a hurry, I was meaning :

"0 0 moveto[[BR]]
<width> 0 lineto[[BR]]
<width> <height> lineto[[BR]]
0 <height> lineto[[BR]]
closepath[[BR]]
.5 setgray[[BR]]
fill"[[BR]]

In this example it will draw a gray background on the map extent.

Vincent.

Comment (by hamish):

my thinking now is to make it its own new instruction called "background",
not as part of the "border" instruction.
