If you would like to have macros for something special, please just let

Is there any site that shows all BCRA symbols?

Line gradient is a simple arrow. Line slope defines in fact an area and
should draw a lot of arrows perpendicular to the given line.

Thanks
Eventually got it to work, you also need to the line
symbol-set UIS
which I had in the layout, and seems to override the replace.

AMER is the suffix for American. I dont believe it is an "official" NSS
symbol but it shows up on ever american map I own. I really need to learn
Metapost and tex so I can do what ever I want to therion.

snip example. Thanx very much for the quick and complete response -that works.
I now see the gradient symbol you have used is a
strange kind of 'crows-foot' thing. I am not familiar with that one. Is
This is how you overload metapost symbols.

I kind of cheated to do this, I noticed that the BCRA slope symbol is
similar to the UIS entrance arrow symbol. I also noticed
This is my overloaded symbol for gradient point. I want to make a line symbol
for gradient but I havent gotten around to it.
code metapost
def p_gradient_AMER (expr pos,theta,sc,al) =
U:=(.15u, .4u);
T:=identity aligned al rotated theta scaled sc shifted pos;

If I have understood, you would like to change following symbols:
point gradient
line gradient
line slope
I thought, you have

Wookey, I apologize myself, but this is not very logical. Isn't it
