Artem Pavlenko bb235fa316 1.added projection transformation support based on proj4 (new dependency!!!)
Map and Layer objects both have a new parameter 'srs', initialized to "+proj=latlong +datum=WGS84" by default. 
    
  Basic usage (Python):
    p = Projection("+proj=merc +datum=WGS84")
    point = p.forward(Coord(-2,51))
    ...        
2.reflected arithmetic operators for Envelope/Coord into Python
3.altered return policies for python objects
4.modified build system to require proj4 lib and headers

This directory contains a sample python script implementing the Mapnik API.

The script is thoroughly commented and also acts as a mini tutorial.  Reading
it should get you on your way, and you can use it as a base for your work.

You must compile and install mapnik and the python bindings FIRST.

Once this is done, run it:

/path/to/python rundemo.py

If all goes well, it should render 2 map images:

Have a look!
