-.TH ROUTE 1
-.SH NAME
-route \- map orientations and great circle paths
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B route
-[
-.B -t
-]
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.I Route
-without an option
-reads from the standard input a sequence of points, expressed
-as latitude-longitude pairs.
-For each pair of points, say A and B,
-.I route
-prints on the standard output
-.IP \-
-A
-.IR map (7)
-orientation, expressed as a
-.B -o
-option, that transforms the great circle from A to B into the equator.
-The transformed locations of A and B are located on the equator
-at equal distances west and east of the Prime Meridian.
-.IP \-
-The transformed coordinates of the two points.
-.IP \-
-The same information for a map orientation in which point A
-appears to the east and B to the west of the Prime Meridian.
-.PP
-Under option
-.B -t
-.I route
-produces coordinates along the great circle from A to B
-in the form of a track for use with
-.I map
-option
-.BR -t .
-.PP
-Coordinates are expressed in degrees, with latitude
-positive north of the equator and longitude positive
-west of Greenwich.

-.RE
-.IP
-From this we derive the following command to draw a strip map
-20 degrees wide along the great circle from New York to London.
-The
-.B -w
-option windows the map in the new coordinate system, where
-the equator runs along the great circle and the two cities
-sit at 25W and 25E on that `equator'.
-The
-.B -l
-option avoids surveying the whole rest of the world for
-plottable points.
