1. The default input format has X (easting) followed by Y (northing).
You need to use the -r switch if the northing comes first.

2. In the absence of a trailing E or W, positive eastings are east of
the prime meridian. You need either a leading "-" or a trailing "W"
for eastings in the western hemisphere.

Glynn,

  There's another discrepancy in the man page I should point out for
posterity: the syntax summary's last item. Notice:

SYNOPSIS
       cs2cs [ -eEfIlrstvwW [ args ] ] [ +opts[=arg] ]
             [ +to [+opts[=arg]] ] file[s]

  This indicates that one can use the command in a file (a shell script).
But, that does not work; it just sits there with no response. Apparently,
the command runs only from the command line.

Thanks again for your clarifications,

Rich
