[mapserver-users] Coordinate Conversions

[Kieran J. Ames]

List,
I've been struggling in an attempt to find/decipher/build a tool that I
can invoke from the command line that will convert decimal degrees to
UTM, returning Easting, Northing and Zone. I need to invoke it in a Perl
cgi process so that I can use to redirect a browser client.
eg: for argument's sake, a pgm called ll2utm would be called like this:
system "ll2utm 40.123456 -71.654321"
and I would be returned (at least) the 3 elements above.

An executable or Perl sub routine would be my dream come true!
Can anyone point me to the right place or forward such a program?
Thanks so much for any assistance.
Kieran
