Hi Jason,
You are exactly right. All the functionality to do
what you want is there, it just isn't easily accessible.
Xastir needs a better layering mechanism. The
ability to turn on or off map (and object) layers more
easily than the Map Chooser and the
View-Mobile Stations etc.
Now,
I was wondering if it would be possible to add the ability in xastir
to set custom unproto paths for objects and items?
For example, if I have my TNC interface configuration path for
WIDE2-2, but I only want the local object to be WIDE2-1, I can't seem
to do that with most of the APRS clients
Just testing.. Ive sent a few messages to this list of late and they all
seem to have fallen into a black hole. Is it still operational ?

This little 12 channel USB GPS receiver works fine with Xastir on both my
HP laptop and my 'Frankenstein' desktop PCs. It's about the size of a
matchbox car. Bit wider.

HI,
shapefile certainly seems the most flexible to me, given the dbfawk

If you turn on some debugging, you can see lots of stuff scroll by,
including the NMEA sentences, and watch what Xastir does with them.
Start Xastir from an Xterm like this:
xastir -v 128
I got the 128 from the DEBUG_LEVELS file.

Kind'a sort'a.
If you don't go into debug mode then you'll only see GGA or RMC

I don't know the terminology, but I've wondered how / how difficult it would
be to display APRS weather data the way TV stations do - for example, temp
data would be some pseudo-continuous shading based on relative temperature
(or wind speed, wind direction, rainfall accumulation, or whatever).
In my fairly limited experience with VMware, it doesn't like it when the
serial ports/USB devices come and go, especially if they are in use. If you
hard code com port support in the VMware config file (e.g., you let windows
take care of the USB/rs232 driver and let VMware see a com port) things
two ways to do it:
1 - make windows leave your usb/rs232 adapter alone, and let the vm have
that device
2 - let windows have the usb/rs232 adapter, and let vmware provide the vm
with a (virtual) com port.
I have found approach 2 to be the least problematic, but a bit more
difficult to set up.
