I've downloaded various free maps from this site just recommended to
me, for my imminent holiday in Canada:
http://www.geobase.ca/geobase/en/index.html

But they are in GML format (Geography Markup Language) and SHP (ESRI
Shapefiles). The latter are probably going to be what I need. But how
do I view SHP files? Searches so far have yielded many technical
articles but so far no freely available program. Anyone here with
suggestions please?

(Also asked in the sci.geo.cartography group.)
