I got it all installed with a few apt-gets and calls to CPAN and
allowing `install Tk::JPEG` to talk to the X server for its tests.

I'd like to be able to specify a lat and lon, or have the tiling
threaded, it can take some time to zoom out. Whilst trying I ran in to a
bug:

DRAW OSM FOR 58.6 58.2 16 15.2
Set scale to 1600
Tk::Error: Illegal division by zero at landsat.pm line 472.
 Tk callback for .frame2.button6
 Tk::__ANON__ at /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.7/Tk.pm line 247
 Tk::Button::butUp at /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.7/Tk/Button.pm line 111
 <ButtonRelease-1>
 (command bound to event)

That is pretty. Is it projected? I couldn't tell.

If you want access to the OSM subversion repository or anything else so
that others can help and hack on your code and so on, you're more that
welcome to have it.

have fun,
