[mapserver-users] width of line features

[Martin, Daniel]

If this goes in the docs, I would suggest a highly related answer to the
often asked question "How do I outline these lines?" come right after it:

  CLASS
    NAME "Streets"
    COLOR 0 0 0
    SYMBOL 'circle'
    SIZE 4
    OVERLAYSYMBOL 'circle'
    OVERLAYCOLOR 244 0 0
    OVERLAYSIZE 2
  END
