Dear Mike,

thank you for the link, it really looks very similar to what is needed.

Nevertheless the small difference is that the offset (especially its +/-
sign) should be determined by mapnik automatically for the Czech tourist
trails purposes. Otherwise the style definition would have to include
the super-set of at least 4 colours used for trails (15 definitions in
total) not mentioning the subsequent problems of drawing the junctions.

Do you think I should add this to the ticket? Or possibly create a new
one?

Thanks,
Radek Černoch
