Ian,
Hmmm, I was told you couldn't do this when I asked about the same thing
a couple of months ago.
I had asked about a way to label arbitrarily just like inserting a SCALE
in the lower Right corner, but there didn't seem to be a way to do it at
the time. I recall putting in a bug I think.
I would be interested in the results if you find a way to do this.

How do you dynamically place text (eg. a copyright notice) in the bottom
left corner of the map using the mapsize attributes? For the copyright I am
using:
LAYER
#
# COPYRIGHT
#
NAME copyright
STATUS DEFAULT
TRANSFORM FALSE
TYPE ANNOTATION
FEATURE
POINTS
10 600
END
TEXT '© 2006 Me'
END
CLASS
LABEL
TYPE TRUETYPE
FONT tahoma_bold
SIZE 8
ANTIALIAS TRUE
COLOR 255 255 255
FORCE TRUE
END
END
END # LAYER
So in the FEATURE POINTS section I need something like 10 %mapsize.height%-5
but haven't found any examples of people doing this. Thank you.
