xglobe (x11/xglobe) Add to my watchlist

XGlobe displays the earth as seen from space on your X desktop.

XGlobe displays the earth as seen from space on your X desktop, similar to xearth by Kirk Lauritz Johnson. The image of the globe is updated at regular intervals. XGlobe uses a world map image which is mapped to the globe. With a good map this can look very nice. It is possible to mark locations on the globe. This port includes the work done by Mark Espie from OpenBSD, that has not yet be included upstream. Also there is a markerfile with the positions of the OpenDarwin developers.
