Dear all, 
I am new to proj. I have a raster map projected in
"init=epsg:27585"on which I 
am placing points in latitude and longitude using 
PROJECTION
  "init=epsg:4326"
END
Everything works well. Now for search purposes, I need
to convert these lat 
long coordinates into meters. Which projection do I
use? I have tried to 
convert my lat long with proj +init=epsg:4326  <<EOF
> 10 20
> EOF
Rel. 4.4.9, 29 Oct 2004
<proj>:
+proj=latlong unsuitable for use with proj program.
program abnormally terminated

This is what I get.
CAn anyone please help?

Thanks
