[Proj] Re: Newbie Polar stereographic question

[john star]

Hi Gerald!

Thanks, I understand now that in libproj, the plane MUST be orthogonal
to the earth, and there is no support for this plane to be "inside" the
earth..

Is there a way to use the library for this case ? by playing with parameters 
(btw,
what are the rest of parameters like lat_ts and k?), or it is just not 
supported ?

Best Regards
   John

I should say lon_0+180
