Good morning.

Attached is a patch that documents the new importing GPX files
capability, and the involved new "add" menu.
The new features are fully functional (at least in the tests I've been
running) *but* they aren't included in the companion version in Google
Play, yet. The version I've playing around is Venkatesh's
http://goo.gl/vb2lR7 , but, as it seems this feature will be included in
the next Aurelien's version expected to be released in short, I think
it's worth the work of including this in Subsurface's user manual as
precompiled packs' manuals won't be updated.

BTW, I'm gonna file a bug against the sync feature when there are
deletions involved as soon as I can run a pair of pending tests.

Regards

Salva
