HiI am just writing the documentation for the new map API. I wonder if some of 
the variable names are now misleading. For example type can either be one of 
the plplot built in map types or the filename of a shapefile, so perhaps name 
or file might be better. Perhaps more importantly in a shapefile the 
coordinates may not be lat/lon (this is true for the ones used in the new 
example) so the variables minlong etc are misleading, they should perhaps be 
minx etc instead.
I realize however that people have been implementing the new functions in other 
bindings so this would have been better flagged a few weeks ago, so I'm sorry 
if this generates extra unnecessary work. Should we change them or leave them 
the same?
Phil
