Comment (by timmie):

 - it loads like: +proj=utm +zone=24 +south +ellps=aust_SA +units=m
 +no_defs  <>
         which doesn't work unless modified to +proj=utm +zone=24 +south
 +ellps=aust_SA +units=m +no_defs
     - this works very well => great plus!
     - for not leading to mislead coordinates comparisions it would be
 great to show the EPSG number in the status bar
     - please make a switch in the status bar to either native coodinates
 of the location or the projection defined in the Config
     - does it check whether the projections comply?
     - please documents that: one needs to input the EPSG number and then
 press load code
     - pelase enable to display the coordinates in decimal numbers: -f
 '%.8f'
