Hello, does anybosy know of any XFCN's to return the geographic
latitude and longitude as kept in the MAP cdev?
I know that there's no way to tell if the machine has accurate
data in these buffers but I heard rumors that the new 040 mac will
have a LORAN C built in just for this pupose.

It is available via anonymous ftp at joker.optics.rochester.edu (128.151.240.1). The file is mac/Locale.sit.hqx. It is a Hypercard 2.0 stack, but you can grab the XCMDs out with ResEdit if you don't have 2.0. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | Len Saaf, The Institute of Optics, Univ. of Rochester, Rochester, NY | | Internet: saaf@joker.optics.rochester.edu Bitnet: SAAF@UOROPT | ------------------------------------------------------------------------
