How about xearth? Gives you a choice of projections, can make it
your root window or run in its own window.

Also SWLTool has a simple globe representation of the world
with day/night shading.

I used to use an old DOS (or Windows) program called Geoclock that
displayed a world map with the sun and the sunrise/sunset line on

in.

Anyone know of a good X/Linux equivalent? I've got the KDE world clock
toy, but it only displays the current time and won't display arbitrary
time like Geoclock could.
