Today's CVS, labels that follow street segments and antialias lines

[Paul Spencer]

Steve,

re 1) the latest cvs had working labels following lines (more or  
less) when I last did it.  I didn't check mindistance though.  And  
there are still some outstanding issues I think (unless this is the  
un-committed patch?)

re 2) you need to change SYMBOL "circle" to SYMBOL 0, SIZE 3 to WIDTH  
3 and set TRANSPARENCY ALPHA at the LAYER level.

re 3) I'd like to know the same thing.  I never got polygons working :(

Cheers

Paul
