R 8. But could be considered to be just making it work in the Garmin format. Are there any downsides? Well it could lead to performance impact on the GPS device. For someone who doesn't need POI search, this option would be bad. I would say making it default, and allowing to switch it off would be better though. In general I agree to you, but not in this case. If you wont create a POI-Index, then you also wont adress POI in your points-file and then no one of these created points where used for creating the map. I don't know how much performance it coast, but I think not so much. So turning this off wont be necessary.
As already mentioned in "Happy-Birthday"-Mail. For beginners it would be good to have only some options set and get a working map. Eg. --routing --address-index --poi-index --gampsupp --mapsource --style= --mapname=... data.osm and then mkgmap does everything, this seems to be necessary for this. All other options could be as is for experts. Henning
