Hello All:

I hope I don't get flamed here, but I have run into a lot of difficulty trying to do something that I consider a basic required feature of any analysis and visualization tool. I'm talking about labelling plots (titles, captions, axes, legends, etc.) with both text and greek symbols (at least!). Anyways, I have become very frustrated at this, and now I am trying to make a case for why this should be clarified and simplified for those of us who have Maple (I have both Maple 10 and Maple 11 for what it's worth) in the hopes that the powers that be make this a priority.

Hello All: I recently just purchased Maple, so perhaps I just don't know how to do this yet, but I think the ability to plot data on world maps would be a great feature to include. I am an Earth Scientist and often I have to port my data to something like GMT to plot fault data or seismicity on geographic locations. I know that both IDL and Matlab have those capabilities, and I think it would a great feature to include in Maple. Other solutions of this sort have just created ports to the GMT commnads. R creates a port to the GMT system calls, and SciPy with Matplotlib w/ basemap allow one to plot data on world maps.
