drawlsmask not working for rotpole

[razcore-rad]

Now that I played with 'rotpole' a bit... I also found that dralsmask fails with ZeroDivisionError. This is the full traceback:

ZeroDivisionError: float division by zero

I figured it's because of this:

nx = int((self.xmax-self.xmin)/dx)+1; ny = int((self.ymax-self.ymin)/dx)+1

here self.xmax, self.xmin, ... are used incorrectly for 'rotpole' giving nx == ny == 1.

I tried changing line 3928:

if self.projection == 'cyl':

to

if self.projection == 'cyl' or self.projection == 'rotpole':

with the effect of producing a nice pattern :) but no land sea mask unfortunately... so the issue is a bit dipper, but I don't have time to investigate now...

Edit: on version 1.0.7

I have the same problem for merc projection with any of the external sources of background such as bluemarble etc. Have you by any chance, found the general error?
