Hey folks,

  If anyone's interested, I created a GDAL-based utility for creating
shaded relief maps from a DEM. This was for a client who was kind enough
to let me keep the rights to all of my code ;-) So I'll release it to
the public domain in case anyone can find a use for it.

  Basically it's a simple GDAL/C++  port of the GRASS algorithm from
r.shaded.relief. Of course this has the advantage of being able to use
any GDAL DEM not just a GRASS map.  I've compiled it against gdal 1.3.1
on linux and I'd like to see if anyone else has any luck on different
platforms. Of course suggestions and changes are very appreciated as my
C++ experience is a bit weak.
