With regards to this latest digest note from Curt, is there a wiki entry
somewhere dealing with making / modifying dbfawk files?
I still have my Tigerline maps from 200x vintage for all 254 counties in
Texas. I recall having to make a few changes some time ago, but I've
slept since then. ;-)

https://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/tiger-line.html With a quick
reading it looks like the Tigermaps from 2007 to 2015 are all the same
format, but please someone correct me if I'm wrong. If that's the
case, the 2015 ones should work fine in Xastir: 2008 was the last
format we integrated in with dbfawk files. Of course one of the things
map providers tend to do is change the signature on the DBF files. If
they've done that, then you have to create new dbfawk files to go with
them to do the mapping for Xastir. On Thu, Jul 14, 2016 at 1:33 PM,

Here's one place it appears you can get OSM Shapefile extracts:

Again, you most likely will have to create dbfawk files to go with them.
It's not terribly difficult.
