It would be nice to add an fcolor (fill color) argument to the 'border' option, in order to switch from white to any color the background of a map composition.

Thank you, Vincent

Vincent suggests: 

"0 0 width height box
stroke "
at the beginning of the ps file.

Sorry, I did it in a hurry, I was meaning :

"0 0 moveto
<width> 0 lineto
<width> <height> lineto
0 <height> lineto
closepath
.5 setgray
fill"

In this example it will draw a gray background on the map extent.

my thinking now is to make it its own new instruction called "background", not as part of the "border" instruction.
