Summary     : Generic Mapping Tools
Description :
GMT is an open source collection of ~60 tools for manipulating geographic and
Cartesian data sets (including filtering, trend fitting, gridding, projecting,
etc.) and producing Encapsulated PostScript File (EPS) illustrations ranging
from simple x-y plots via contour maps to artificially illuminated surfaces
and 3-D perspective views.  GMT supports ~30 map projections and transforma-
tions and comes with support data such as coastlines, rivers, and political
boundaries.

GMT is developed and maintained by Paul Wessel and Walter H. F.  Smith with
help from a global set of volunteers, and is supported by the National
Science Foundation.

Update Information:

This release fixes several problems but also adds much new  functionality; it is
therefore a highly recommended upgrade  from 4.4.0.    New tools in the misc and
imgsrc supplements, as well as  improvements to ps2raster, allow users to
prepare rich KML  files for Google Earth.  It also adds a new supplement (sph)
for triangulation and interpolation on a sphere, relying on  R. Renka's
published source code.      Finally, it includes a much improved GSHHS, now at
version 2.0.    For more information see
