Correct me if I am wrong, but the maps you are using look like the in-game maps. Those did not exist back then. So, this is not classic, and you could not have done this back then, because you would not have the map to display your location on.
Parsing your locs from the logs, fine, but useless without a proper map to display your stuff on.

your are incorrect cause this software can actually create a map from the scratch - your char simply runs around zone edges doing /loc and the programs draws a map from the log file. Technically it works on the same principle that LOY cartographer system worked on for first people who were running around "drawing lines" with it (I know I did).
The ONLY thing that I can find not-classic with this is that old days EQ couldn't be ALT-TAB out of - so you could not run (or at least access) any other software at the same time. This would not prevent you from creating a map, but would prevent you from looking at your active position. However there was special eq-window box software introduced at some point which was used by 2-boxers.
