Hi. Yes, as I said, like what maposmatic does. :)
I have had a bit of a look at their code. It seems to use Mapnik under the covers. I was hoping for something that was a bit more accessible than hacking the maposmatic code. I like the grid it creates though, and the index. It's probably a good starting point. The export from the OSM web site only exports the rendering of the main street map layer (from a PDF or SVG point of view). - Ben.
