via gpsbabel

Hello.

The bug has been fixed. A new version (1.5) is now on my website.

I don't know what has to be done from here to pass this information up. 

The bug was caused by poor input handling in my code. The GPX file that was
attached had a track segment in it without timestamps - such as would occur
when the track had been saved into more permanent memory - the GPS then strips
out the (rather useful) timestamp information.

gpscorrelate now ignores track points without timestamp data. The original bug
poster should be made aware that only tracks with timestamps are really useful
- the file he sent had some tracks with timestamp data (ie, tracks from the
working memory on the GPS). To ensure the useful timestamps are kept, they
will have to ensure that the download is done directly from the GPSs working
memory.

Any other problems - let me know.

Anyway, apologies for the delay.

Daniel Foote.
