Long Description:
VERSAMAP is a menu driven program which allows the user to draw
outline maps on 8 different map projections. VERSAMAP allows
great flexibility in designing maps: the latitude/longitude
boundaries and type of grid superimposed on the map can be
specified.
VERSAMAP can plot maps using the digital map databases 'The World
Digitized' and 'Micro World Data Bank II', which are available
from shareware disk vendors. Individual geographic features,
such as coastlines, rivers, islands, and political boundaries,
can be plotted with the 'Micro World Data Bank II' database. A
'Micro World Data Bank II' map database is supplied with
VERSAMAP. The program also accepts user input in an ASCII file
format.
Maps drawn with VERSAMAP can be output to the screen; to Epson
compatible dot matrix or Hewlett-Packard compatible laser
printers; as .PCX files for use in paint programs; as .CGM and
Lotus .PIC graphics files for use with word processors and
presentation graphics programs; and as ASCII files, suitable
for import into technical graphing programs.
The program allows text to be added to maps displayed on the
screen in Courier or Helvetica fonts, which are supplied with the
program.

MS-DOS 3.0 or higher;
CGA, MCGA, EGA, or VGA video display adapter and color monitor;
