point numbers, in fixed field length with leading spaces, in common RE syntax they would be
'\ *[0-9]+\.00' (optional spaces, followed by a point and two zeroes)
That will work in java regular expressions too, although I don't think you need the first '\' character.
I want to pick out those with '000', '500', '00' and '50' before the point (doing contours) - of course a modulo operation on the floating point value would also work, but I haven't found that, either...
How would I specify that in mkgmap? (P.S. I don't know Java, so please don't tell me it's in 'standard Java notation' ;-)
I'm not clear exactly what you are trying to match, but if you are familiar with other regular expression languages the one in java is very similar to the one in Perl 5 and other modern languages. See a summary of what it is supported and the differences to Perl 5 at: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/util/regex/Pattern.html If you are not very familiar with regular expressions in any language then if you reply with a few examples of what you want to match I can probably help out. ..Steve
