I did not know that.
Thanks!

Well, I hate to provide the disappointing answer, but it really doesn't
work for Postscript. (The name pstricks has perhaps become misleading
over time...)
It inserts special codes in the Postscript that aren't part of the Ps
standard, but that ps2pdf14 is able to convert into the correct Pdf

Impressive. How is it done?

FYI, I got the following error:

'fill_color'
and again for 'lake_color' on the fillcontinents() method.
I'm using 0.9.7, which I think is the latest released versi
Jeff - Yes, that's what I want, thanks.
I think more explanation is in order - my large-scale map is the
default basemap projection. The inset map of the globe is a
orthogonal projection, which means it comes out as a little circle.
I want to insert this smaller map into the larger one, w

I am using Basemap, and trying to create two maps:
One large-scale map, and a small-scale inset map of the world
centered on the location of the large-scale map. My ultimate goal is
to create a figure where the inset map is inserted into a corner of
the large-scale map. I can see two ways
