My favorite new features - Box axes on maps, thick < 1, and the Arrow
function:

m = Map('Mercator', /BOX_AXES, LABEL_POSITION=0, $
LIMIT=[-60,0,60,360], FILL_COLOR='light blue', $
THICK=0.5, DIMENSIONS=[800,400])
m1 = MapContinents(FILL_COLOR='green', THICK=0.5)

a = Arrow([230,255],[0,40], /DATA, HEAD_SIZE=0.5)
a = Arrow([190,203],[-20,19], /DATA, HEAD_SIZE=0.5)

t = Text(230,-10,'Boulder', /DATA, ALIGNMENT=0.5)
t = Text(190,-28,'Hawaii', /DATA, ALIGNMENT=0.7)

m.Save, 'map801.pdf'

p.s. you'll need to open up the PDF to see the thin lines.
