Bypassses #40

[disarticulate]

I don't know what the other letters are for. But it resolves the error.

Might want to add a test.

This should not be merged IMO. The other letters are different SVG codes, you can find it here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Tutorial/Paths

There are three commands that draw lines. The most generic is the "Line To" command, called with L. L takes two parameters—x and y coordinates—and draws a line from the current position to a new position.

We can shorten the above path declaration a little bit by using the "Close Path" command, called with Z. This command draws a straight line from the current position back to the first point of the path. It is often placed at the end of a path node, although not always.

You can string together several Bezier curves to create extended, smooth shapes. Often, the control point on one side of a point will be a reflection of the control point used on the other side to keep the slope constant. In this case, you can use a shortcut version of the cubic Bezier, designated by the command S

Treating Z and S like L like this patch does is wrong and will lead to other problems.

OK, so whats the solution

[Agnpalm]

Well, I'm not really familiar with the mplleaflet code or SVG, I just found it as one of few options to plot on maps in Python, and immediately ran into bug #40. The only thing I know about SVG is what I've read in the link to Mozilla I posted above.

However, the solution is actually written in the comment from four years ago:

# TODO: Do this smartly by finding when pathcodes changes value and do
# smart indexing on data, instead of iterating over each coordinate

Different path codes does different things and use a different amount of parameters. The current code treats all path codes the same and assumes that all of them takes two parameters, like the L command. I wrote a lengthy comment (#40 (comment)) about it when I did a quick nightly debugging session trying to make it work.

This patch is like wrapping everything in a try except block and ignoring the error.

I'm not saying the fault lies with you either, I know you were asked to make the patch by @jwass. I disagree with that decision, but then I'm just a new user that wants to be able to plot circles and rings on maps.
