Re: [ferret_users] extract contours to kml for google earth

[Karl Smith <karl.smith@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Patrick,

To answer your question about future support, one of the Python
external functions to be added to PyFerret is support for KML files.
I am planning on making use of the pyKml package, and am assuming it
would be similar to the shapefile Python external functions already
written.

I am finally done (for now) with replacing the graphics in PyFerret,
so I will be working on the web pages for introducing and downloading
PyFerret.
