 Yeah, I've also used ps.map, but there's no bgcolor (or similar) option
 under colortable. I would also need a logarithmic scale in the raster
 legend, but there's no option for that, neither for setting specific tick-
 marks (perhaps this should go to a separate ticket??).

 categories. I mean, there's a vector legend option in psmap, but if you
 are interested in polygons with different categories and you want to add a
 legend for that, there's no way to do it (unless you convert the vector
 map to a raster map, which was what I had to do)...

 scripts], notably the 'label' option in the 'varea' definitions.

 This I haven't noticed. Thanks much for the examples and for pointing that
 out :)
