<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
 
<em>d.northarrow</em> displays a north arrow symbol the graphics monitor at
the given screen coordinates. If no coordinates are given it will draw the
north arrow in the bottom right of the display. It can draw the north arrow
in a number of styles (see the
 <a href="http://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Cartography#Display_monitors">wiki
page</a> for details).


<h2>TODO</h2>

Add options to use an arbitrary rotation angle for when grid north and true
north diverge, and add a flag to calculate that convergence angle and apply
the rotation automatically.
