Here is the awk script I use to plot #L entries from the UUCP map.
It produces output suitable for graph(1G).  Sites at the same
latitude/longitude are listed in the same label (which produces
absurdly long labels for the New Jersey map, so I arbitrarily
truncate the label to 50 characters).

It correctly parses the following "imaginative" entries from the map:

#L	35 46 38.219 N, 139 36 52.833 E
#L	79'25W / 43'45N city
#L	107 W/52 N
#L	48.13972 N  11.57444 E
#L	45dg 12' N, 05dg 46' E
#L	2 21'24" E /48 52'01"N
#L	02 21' 24'' East / 48 52' 01'' North
#L	[59.33N 18.09E]
#L	37.2 N / 122 W(approx), Santa Clara(CLose to San Francisco)
#L	37deg 52' 28" North x 122deg 15' 44" West
#L	37o 12' 13" N, 122o 10' 49" W
#L	Lat 44 deg. 59.0' N, Long 93 deg. 15.8' W
#L	42' 58'' N / 78' 48'' W (city)

It interprets period as a decimal point, which causes incorrect
results on these:

#L	approx. 33.30'N, 117W
#L	52.16'40"N 10.32'30"E
#L	49.15:20N 7.2:30E

It requires N, E, S, W to terminate the numbers, and separators between
degrees/minutes/seconds, so it produces no output for these:

#L	N43'04"13.658 W89'24"23.156  Elevation246.81meters Stdv<10meters
#L	122/37 30'
#L	472240N / 083330E
#L	Lat 36 deg 08 min, Long 80 deg 15 min
#L	Lat 37 27' 35", Lon 122 5' 0"
#L	longitude/latitude (har ingen aning, hoppad Du har !)
			   [have no idea, hope you have !]

A month ago some of the European maps were filled with entries of
the form "N 1 23 E 4 56", but some hardworking soul has fixed them
all.  Thanks, whoever you are!	(Mel?)
