There are a number of addons that allow for map coordinates. Do you have any mods already?

Okay, I can presume from that, that you don't already have any.

Tell you what, I'm going to link 3 different map mods for you to look at. Pick the one you like

Map Notes
Titan Panel
CT_MapMod (make sure you pick just the map mod, you don't need everything else from on that page)

After you decide which one you like and want to use, download it, then go to the FAQ link on the bar up above. There are instructions listed there telling you how to install the mod you pick.

Gatherer shows coordinates on the big map.

You don't actually need a mod to show the coordinates of your current player position -- it's a pretty simple macro:

/script DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(string.format("%.2f , %.2f", GetPlayerMapPosition("player")))

Whoops, on second thought, I don't think that will work. (Can't remember if Lua returns multiple values when called in list context.) The following should work:

/script local x,y=GetPlayerMapPosition("player"); DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(string.format("%d , %d", x*100, y*100))

Make sure to type it all on one line in the macro editing window (it's ok if the line wraps around, just don't hit enter).
