Re: Drawing a line resulting a closed polygon

Dear Paul,

Here is my script:

#!/bin/tcsh

set psfile="Aceh2.ps"

set la1=2
set la2=5.5
set lo1=96
set lo2=100

rm $psfile
pscoast -R$lo1/$lo2/$la1/$la2 -Df -JM6i -S200 -G80 -K -B0.4NsWe -W1/0 > 
$psfile
psxy -R -JM -m -N -P -O -K  -W10/140 transform_xy >> $psfile
echo showpage >> $psfile
gv $psfile


I got the postscript file as attached.
Even the coastline also results in the closed polygon.
However, when I choose larger boundary region it will give a correct 
fault line

Regards,
Muksin
