Good afternoon all,
I am currently using Grass 4.2.19, with tcltkgrass, and have been trying
to sort out how ps.map works (setting up some PostScript devices,
learning how to write a ps.map script file etc).
I am finding that it doesn't exactly do as I would have expected, in
that no header, or grid coordinates etc are provided, even though the
script asked for them or they should have been provided as a default.
Is there any among you who have been through this and figured out how to
bludgeon ps.map into doing what it is told :-), and if so, could you
please enlighten me.
Cheers,

Hi Terry!
It has been a while since I used ps.map, but I also had problems with the
grid option in a skript file. I found that it only worked when you are
drawing a rastermap, and not if you only draw vectors, and you have to
explicitly set the text atts in the grid command: Ex:
-- snip
grid 1000
numbers 1
font helvetica
fontsize 5
end
--
I never used the header option, but it looks like you have to provide a
special text file, not that it gets header information from a map by its own.
Hope this helps.
Michael
