[mapserver-users] Label formatting on GRID

Hi All

I am wanting to truncate (simplify) the grid numbering to match the grid
reference users would use in the field.

Looking at the top right (of the attached example) I would like
236000 to just display as 36 and
6263000 to just display as 63

In a perfect world I would love it to display like this
a subscript (little) 2 followed by standard 36 =  236  and
a subscript (little) 62 followed by standard 63 =  6263

Any suggestions ??

Thanks :)

The attache map I generated using mapserver 7.0
The Grid map file is
LAYER
  GROUP "default"
  NAME "grid"
  METADATA
    "DESCRIPTION" "Grid"
  END
  TYPE LINE
  STATUS ON
  CLASS
    NAME "Graticule"
    COLOR 100 100 100
    LABEL
      COLOR  255 0 0
      FONT sc
      TYPE truetype
      SIZE 8
      POSITION AUTO
      PARTIALS FALSE
      FORCE TRUE
      BUFFER -10
      OUTLINECOLOR 255 255 255
    END
  END
  PROJECTION
    "init=epsg:28356"
  END
  GRID
    LABELFORMAT '%.0f'
    MININTERVAL 1000
  END
END # Layer
