We have added a new supplement (<B>sph</B>) which offers interpolation, triangulation (Delaunay and Voronoi), and distance calculations on a spherical surface. The hard work is done by the original effort of Robert Renka who developed the Fortran-77 SSRFPACK and STRIPACK libraries; these are here supplied via a <I>f2c</I><A NAME="3046"></A>-assisted translation. The <B>imgsrc</B> supplement has a new Bourne script <A NAME="tex2html223" HREF="../man/img2google.html"><I><B>img2google</B></I></A><A NAME="3050"></A>, which simplifies making Google Earth tiles from Sandwell and Smith bathymetry. The <B>mgd77</B> supplement has a new program <A NAME="tex2html224" HREF="../man/mgd77magref.html"><I><B>mgd77magref</B></I></A><A NAME="3055"></A>, which is used to evaluate either the CM4 comprehensive geomagnetic model, a more sophisticated alternative to IGRF, or the IGRF. The <B>misc</B> supplement has received two new tools (<A NAME="tex2html225" HREF="../man/gmt2kml.html"><I><B>gmt2kml</B></I></A><A NAME="3060"></A> and <A NAME="tex2html226" HREF="../man/kml2gmt.html"><I><B>kml2gmt</B></I></A><A NAME="3065"></A>) that simplify the presentation of <A NAME="tex2html227" HREF="http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu"><B>GMT</B></A> data in Google Earth, and one (<A NAME="tex2html228" HREF="../man/dimfilter.html"><I><B>dimfilter</B></I></A><A NAME="3073"></A>) that offers directional spatial filtering of grids. The <B>x2sys</B> supplement has a new tool (<A NAME="tex2html229" HREF="../man/x2sys_merge.html"><I><B>x2sys_merge</B></I></A><A NAME="3078"></A>) to merge updated COEs table into a main COE table database. Finally, <A NAME="tex2html230" HREF="../man/ps2raster.c.html"><I><B>ps2raster.c</B></I></A><A NAME="3083"></A> has evolved further and can now be used to create simple KML files for Google Earth. <P> A major new enhancement is the global option <B>-g</B>, which is used to determine if excessive spacing between data points (``gaps'', to be defined in a variety of ways) should be used to segment an otherwise continuous line. We expect to enable <B>-g</B> in several programs during the next revision; at the moment it is available in <A NAME="tex2html231" HREF="../man/gmtconvert.html"><I><B>gmtconvert</B></I></A><A NAME="3090"></A>, <A NAME="tex2html232" HREF="../man/mapproject.html"><I><B>mapproject</B></I></A><A NAME="3095"></A>, <A NAME="tex2html233" HREF="../man/psxy.html"><I><B>psxy</B></I></A><A NAME="3100"></A> and <A NAME="tex2html234" HREF="../man/psxyz.html"><I><B>psxyz</B></I></A><A NAME="3105"></A>. Given that all the lower-case <A NAME="tex2html235" HREF="http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu"><B>GMT</B></A> options deal with low-level data i/o settings we have decided to rename the <B>-M</B> option (which controls the presence of multiple segment headers) to <B>-m</B>; this allows us to promote this ubiquitous option to global status (<I>i.e.</I>, has the same meaning in all <A NAME="tex2html236" HREF="http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu"><B>GMT</B></A> programs). Use of <B>-M</B> will remain valid for the rest of <A NAME="tex2html237" HREF="http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu"><B>GMT</B></A> 4.x but results in a warning about the new usage. Related to this is the introduction of a new parameter (<B>NAN_RECORDS</B>) that determines if NaNs in key columns (such as longitude, latitude) should constitute a line break or bad data to be skipped. <P> We have revised how ellipsoids are specified. When importing an ellipsoid file, we allow a,b,f as ellipsoid parameters, where b or f could both be zero. If file does not exist, attempt to read name as a[/[b=<IMG WIDTH="8" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0" SRC="img12.png" ALT="$\vert$">f=]f], meaning <I>semi-major axis</I>, b=<I>semi-minor axis</I>, f = <I>flattening</I>, or <I>inverse flattening</I>. We have also added parameters for the TOPEX ellipsoid and for the Moon and planets (IAU2000). <P> This release of <A NAME="tex2html238" HREF="http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu"><B>GMT</B></A> coincides with the release 2.0 of GSHHS, the coastline data used by <A NAME="tex2html239" HREF="http://gmt.soest.hawaii.edu"><B>GMT</B></A>. In addition to general improvements to the data, we have expanded the <B>-A</B> option that controls the limits on what features to extract. New modifiers allow users to exclude ``river-lakes'' and any feature whose area is less than a fraction of the original full resolution feature. <P> Finally, our configure script continues to evolve and now better supports installation on 64-bit systems and can automatically detect if and where netCDF exists on your system. <P> Here is the list of bug corrections: <DL> <DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html240" HREF="../man/gmt_customio.c.html"><I><B>gmt_customio.c</B></I></A><A NAME="3129"></A></STRONG></DT> <DD>: In <TT>GMT_ras_read_grd_info</TT>, wrong size was passed to fread. </DD> <DT><STRONG><A NAME="tex2html241" HREF="../man/gmt_grdio.c.html"><I><B>gmt_grdio.c</B></I></A><A NAME="3135"></A></STRONG></DT> <DD>: Fixed bug in <TT>GMT_grd_setregion</TT>: longitudes were limited inward instead of outward.
