A map gives you a graphic representation of all or part of your country.
.s1
Your own sectors as well as sea, mountains, wasteland and unowned
wilderness and plains show up as a designation mnemonic (see
\*QSector-types\*U). Other sectors appear as question marks
(\*Q?\*U).
.s1
You can also get an lmap by typing 'M' at the march prompt.
.s1
Examples:
.EX map -9:18,-8:5
generates a 28 x 14 map based on data supplied by the sectors
in the area specified.

.EX map # >mapfil
where your \*Qrealm\*U (or '#',
see \*Qinfo realm\*U or \*Qinfo update\*U)
is -5:5,-6:6 will type out a 11 by 13 sector map
and also put the map in the file called \*Qmapfil\*U.
.s1
Also, if you give a ship # instead of coordinates or a realm, map
will show you a small realm around the given ship (assuming you
own it).
.s1
If you use nmap, you can get a map that shows new sector designations
instead of old sector designations of your own country.
.s1
If you use lmap, you can get a map around a land unit,
instead. Pmap does the same for a plane. Smap does
the same for a ship.
.s1
.L "MAP FLAGS"
.s1
If you give an 's' flag, all your ships will be shown on the map.
An 'l' flag does the same for land units, and a 'p' for planes.
\&'*' shows all in this order: land units, ships, planes.
To highlight sectors you own, specifiy the 'h' flag.
