Hi Peter,

yes the 60csx drops out of the supported devices. It has a certain mass
storage capability, but that is limited to tracks only.

And with newer devices you do not need to bake all maps into a single
gmapsupp.img. You can store each map in it's own gmapsupp and rename it.
Much easier to load new and update old maps.

It's a bit sad but supporting the old devices conflicts with the
capabilities of the newer ones. I wouldn't know how to handle data
project oriented on the old device. And as old devices disappear more
and more I decided to drop them.
