Re: [mkgmap-dev] TYP-file can't be written

Hi Henning

in the end of August it worked without any problems. I've just read here that something was changed with TYP-files and code-page.

The change was that the --code-page parameter overrides the CodePage that is in the typ txt file. That may well have been a bad idea. It certainly is in this case. Previously you would have had a cp1252 TYP file with the tiles being in a different code page (unless you changed the CodePage in the typ txt file too). You should be able to work around the problem by using --code-page=1252 just before the .txt file and then setting it back to what it should be just after. I am tempted to revert that part of the change, but will have to look at why I made it in the first place. ..Steve
