Elwin,

%%%-n Enter the name of the map definition file [map.def]:
%%%
%%%
%%%
%%%-n Enter the denominator for the scale of the map [24000]:

First problem:  you are using the wrong echo command.  Your path is calling
usr/5bin 's echo that's why you see the -n at the begining of all the comments.


%%%cause: unknown elliptical parameter name
%%%
%%%
%%%and after answering some questions I get the error's:
%%%
%%%program abnomally terminated<mapdef>: error understanding geographic range
%%%mapdef abnormally terminated
%%%cat: cannot open map.def: No such file or directory
%%%grep: can't open map.def
%%%cat: cannot open map.def: No such file or directory
%%%cat: cannot open map.def: No such file or directory
%%%cat: cannot open map.def: No such file or directory


Second problem:  I think you compiled the wrong proj code.  Any way here's 
the fix.  Under src.related/mapgen/proj/src there is a file called
pj_ellps.c .  This file stores all the ellipsoid names known to the proj
command.  Unfortunately CERL uses different ellipsoid names then Jerry even
though they based there projection libs from MAPGEN.  TO FIX THE PROBLEM
YOU MUST ENTER ALL THE GRASS ELLIPSOID NAMES IN THIS FILE AND RECOMPILE THE
PROJ COMMAND.  I WILL ATTACH THE EDITED FILE I MODIFIED FOR YOU TO USE.

The attached file was copied with the /tmp path, so be sure to move it back to
src.related/mapgen/proj?/src before compiling.

That should fix your problem.  Let me know.

Jill
