Title: Interface to Mark Newman's cartogram software
Description: This is an interface to C code for "fitting" diffusion
        cartograms to a grid of densities.  The resulting grid can be
        used to transform/interpolate values in the original
        coordinates. The result of transforming boundaries for regions
        with different densities is to make the regions in the new
        coordinates change size to be proportional to the original
        densities. This is used for drawing maps, for example, of
        election vote counts, disease incidences, etc. so that
        different populations/densities are displayed rather than
        geographical area.
