 Yes- that lets me spin. If I manually type in 67 or -1 for the zone I get
 a pop up and it corrects me to the nearest valid value.

 but if I let it spin full-scale a few times in one direction when I press
 continue it complains about an invalid zone even though the number I see
 on the screen is in-range.

 probably just worry about this for the development branches for now & when
 you get a chance, but re. bounds settings a couple of wishes:

  - popup error if s>n, or w>e (except LL), or abs(ns)>90 (LL), right now
 you can click the button but nothing happens if its invalid. feedback as
 to what the error is would be good.

  - after setting the bounds the new region settings are copied to the
 terminal. left over debug code?

  - LL bounds should accept [NnSsEeWw:] as well as [+-.0-9] chars, and res
 should accept ':'; currently it just accepts floats. maybe quietly accept
 123d45'43.21"S format as well if we are feeling generous?

  - it would be really really gee wiz cool if for LL a red rectangle would
 draw covering the region you've selected on the center map. even cooler
 but not that useful in practice would to be able to drag a box on it to
 get the bounds numbers close, rounded to the current resolution.


 thanks,
 Hamish
