I am not sure whether I'll use one of the existing interfaces (eg. the one for opengc,... probably I'll start testing w/ the telnet interface.) or I if write one (yeah, another one :-) right now, its not connected to anything yet, just keyboard input and joystick for easy test input. > http://www.remotesensing.org/proj/ I heard about this... this still doesn't help me with the specific projection technique used on NDs. Also, I have only started digging into all this GIS and similar stuff (also for possible use for my day job) There's a lot of stuff to learn :( Thx, Manuel _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
