Keith Vetter 2010-07-05 : Have you ever looked at all the modules available in Tcllib and wondered what half of them do? Most have a man page but usually it assumes you already know what the module does and doesn't really explain anything.
How about the module map::slippy. The man page description is This package provides a number of methods doing things needed by all types of slippy-based map packages. I've always been intrigued by maps and have written several short programs that interact with various internet map servers, such as TkTopoMap, TkMapper (broken), and My House (broken), so I got interested in understanding this further.
Slippy Map is a web front end [L1 ] to the OpenStreet Map project [L2 ] [L3 ] [L4 ], which shows public domain maps. The tcllib map::slippy module provides routines to map between a latitude, longitude location to map tile and vice versa. The map::slippy::fetcher module provides routines for downloading slippy map tiles. The map::slippy::cache manages a local file based cache of map tiles.
Putting that all together, I put together a small program that displays a 3x3 grid of map tiles from the OpenStreetMap project It lets you select any location, choose between the different map sources and zoom levels. Once the map is displayed, you can scroll in any of the 8 cardinal directions.

I should note that we have an example application for map::slippy, in Tklib. The file is examples/canvas/osm.tcl. It is actually the example application for the canvas::sqmap package, which is a tile-based map display widget on top of canvas, and agnostic of tile source. The map::slippy parts simply fit the API :)

And I believe I now understand what the recently added diagonal arrow buttons were for :) Thanks Keith.
