Just beating that dead horse a bit more, here is a quick doodle I scanned in:
and then a crop, select by colour, fill and threshold filter plus the script using textures from my library...
I played a bit post processing:
- added the grass layer
- masked out portions of the grid and grid bumpmap layers
- added a water layer

*sniff* i love you man!
I just finished a couple of weeks worth of dungeons for an upcoming campaign in an hour and a half with your script
i'm thinking of making them bigger

I posted a link to this thread on the GMMastery yahoogroup. I expect that Johnn will add it to the next issue of Roleplayingtips. Hopefully we'll see some decent feedback from non-cartophiles. I fully expect this script to be a very big draw for the site, so don't neglect to talk it up!

RobA - I haven't had the chance to try it out yet, but it looks fantastic. Thanks so much.
I think we should refer to you as the Scriptmeister.
Any chance you could write up a short little script to take all of the .xcf files in a given folder and convert then en masse into .jpgs of a given quality? That would be a handy little trick.
This is fantastic. I may be missing an option to tweak... when I run the script my grid is offset so that I'm getting a partial square on the left side of my map and losing some on the right.
I've attached an example. I'm sure it's something I could fix if I knew what I was doing.
