[PROJ] Implemtation of WKT in cs2cs

[Kristian Evers]

Fandre,

You have several problems:

1. proj_create_from_wkt() and proj_create() are C functions - they can’t be used from the command line
2. Your WKT contains several non-standard quote (“) character that cs2cs won’t understand
3. The quote characters has to be escaped with backslashes, except the first and last one.

Here’s an updated version of your cs2cs call that works for me:

$ echo 56 12 0 | cs2cs EPSG:4326  "GEODCRS[\"WGS 84\",DATUM[\"World Geodetic System 1984\",ELLIPSOID[\"WGS 84\",6378137,298.257223563,LENGTHUNIT[\"metre\",1.0]]]CS[ellipsoidal,2],AXIS[\"latitude\",north,ORDER[1]],AXIS[\"longitude\",east,ORDER[2]],ANGLEUNIT[\"degree\",0.0174532952]]"
56dN    12dE 0.000
