I use MapUpload (on Windows) to replace the rest of this: >use a hexdump to find the Product ID, (look for a template to learn which) >patch the registry, >use the map in mapsource, >mark the map with the map-tool, >mark the marked maps in the tabbed list for upload, (yes, you read right) >upload the selected maps to your device. It's got a couple of quirks: - It doesn't like pathnames with spaces (not that I blame it :) - The GUI doesn't always update after selecting files to upload, but they are there in the list - Files can not be read-only - I found it necessary to change the filename of a file that I change (the contents of) in order to get it to upload again. These can probably be solved - I just haven't had time to get into it. -- Alan Mintz <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
