sorry you missed us on the wiki. i have to say, i don't really check
the discussion pages like a good wikian should :-(

the script is very simple, and uses cloudmade's ruby API [1] to get
the routes. you'll need to sign up for a cloudmade API key, if you
haven't already. the script i've attached will output CSV on stdout,
but i usually put them in a database for easy access.

run it like "ruby routes.rb <conf file>". i've attached an example
configuration file, which is just a yaml map of string to lat/lon
array.

i look forward to seeing brazil's 250 cities :-)

cheers,

matt
