Hi,
has I said, countries or imagery of the earth surface and stuff is not my stuff.
But I have some good news: here you can find info about how to get coordinates of territories out of shapefile:
http://www.idlcoyote.com/code_tips/extractpoly.php
By the way, when you draw the maps of Europe, IDL gets the shapefile (where the borders are defined) from this file:
IDL path\resource\maps\shape\cntry08.shp

Now the bad news. The pro cgExtractShape is not for free:

You should ask David for a price, might be not that bad... But I sincerely have no idea.

I bought some time ago activecontour.pro and I'm very happy with it.

Cheers,
Helder
