Hi Dave, I am not sure if you understand that echotags always worked. The problem is/was that the rule was not executed because the expression evaluated to false. In other words, I did not change the echotags code, I changed the code so that it is more likely that the term "mkgmap:exit_hint=true & mkgmap:dest_hint=true" evaluates to true.
