Third, is there a way to kick Xastir and force it to reindex the maps and refresh the screen non-interactively? If I get this working, a cron is going to download the track, drop it in the maps directory and it should be able to signal Xastir to reindex the maps and refresh the display so that the track is updated.
About the best I can think of right now is to update the timestamp on the map files you want reindexed, then send the signal to Xastir which causes it to shut down and restart. I think that should cause it to reindex the maps, but test this procedure to make sure. SIGHUP causes a restart. -- Curt, WE7U. archer at eskimo dot com http://www.eskimo.com/~archer Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at math. - unknown Windows: Microsoft's tax on computer illiterates. - WE7U.
