#' Find the distance between locations specified by latitude/longitude in degrees.
#'
#' @param locs a matrix of locations, each row specifying two locations to find the distance between. The first two columns are the "from" longitude and latitude, respectively; the third and fourth columns are the "from" longitude and latitude, respectively.
#' @param dist logical: return the distances as a \code{\link{dist}} object (distance matrix)?
#'
#' @return either a matrix or a distance matrix containing the distances between all the points.
