Re: Changing graticule and land thicknesses



OK, if you really want to be fancy (and spend a lot of time twiddling your
plots), use Jennifer's idea below but do Fprint WITH the -l cps option.
Then edit the postscript code to change green lines to thin lines. (This
only works if you have no other green and can safely find and replace all
occurrences of green flag in the postscript). Yes, it is klugy but I've
done it and it works.
