Thanks for replying Jon.  I was getting ready to repost, or make a
pathetic plea for suggestions, or something.

I understand what you're saying, but I don't know if that's right.
It's embedded in the middle of text status messages being written
to stdout.

It happens right from the beginning, in fact, when I run hgtchop.
I'm messing with just one SRTM1 file -- N38W086.hgt.zip -- and
this is what happens:

stax:~/Projects/TGSandbox-627> for i in data/srtm-1-US/N*.hgt.zip;

I don't know if they're coming over OK in this email, but you should
see/hear some non-alphanumeric characters in there.  I don't know what
that's about; but if I proceed like it's normal and go all the way
through to running fgfs-tools-server and fgfs-tools-client, I get stuff
like this:

stax:~/Projects/TGSandbox/work-502>
~/Projects/TerraGear/source/src/BuildTiles/Parallel/fgfs-tools-server . .
w090n30 Work base: . Output base: .
Area width: 10 degrees
Area height: 10 degrees
lons =3D w090 lats =3D n30
start_lon =3D -90  start_lat =3D 30
socket is connected to port =3D 32786
starting pass =3D 1 with lat =3D 30.0625 lon =3D -89.875

[ skip to tiles from the 1deg x 1deg area SRTM1 I d/l'd ]

Bucket =3D -86:=02, 38: (1)
client returned =3D -1548288
logged bad tile =3D 1548288
Bucket =3D -85:, 38: (1)
client returned =3D -1548290
logged bad tile =3D 1548290
[ snip ]
Bucket =3D -86:=02, 38:=02 (1)
client returned =3D -1548304
logged bad tile =3D 1548304
[ rest snipped ]

Note the extra non-alphanumeric crap in there.  The status directory
fills with ".failed" files -- some of which I would expect to see, for
the portions of the 10deg x 10deg area for which I do not have DEM
data.  But not the ones for which I do.

I have no idea what to do at this point.  I've been playing with
this for three weeks now -- never mind airports or lakes or roads,
just trying to build a single 1deg x 1deg area with landcover alone,
and get weirdness.

Any suggestions?  I could sure use them.
