Use ogrinfo on the tileindex shape file. OGR is the vector part of GDAL.

I'm using a layer of more than 500 tiff files containing DEM
information of a great area. I have created a tile index of all these
maps using the gdaltindex program to use as a layer in my mapfile. It
generated a .shp file along with a .dbf as expected.
I'm having problems to find the proper EXTENT to my map file that will
for the moment only use the layer described above. Is there any easy
way to get full extent of these images or shapefile? The utility
program gdalinfo gives me proper information to build the extent of a
single raster file, but I'm not aware of a tool that gives this kind
of information of a shape file.
I've tried to use OpenJUMP [http://openjump.org] to hover the mouse
over the min and max points of the shapefile but I had no success
using the coordinates it gave me.
Any suggestions?
