Hei,

Assume that your coordinates would fall into UTM zone 31, CM3°E, and within
the geographical area
RR=-R0/6/60/62
The conversion would be something like this:

mapproject -C -F -Ju33/1:1 $RR yourdata.ed50 -T65/220 | mapproject -C -F -I
-Ju33/1:1 -T220/220 > yourdata.wgs84

You may have to play around with the D_FORMAT parameter, not to lose
resolution.

Maarten
