[mkgmap-dev] splitter area list

Moin, I would like to use splitter to cut tiles matching to my SRTM-tiles using the --split-file option, but I am not sure about the format of the area list. The list file generated by splitter looks like 63240001: 1583104,-1261568 to 2338816,-348160 # : 33.969727,-27.070313 to 50.185547,-7.470703 First line is the split command? What do the numbers mean? The second line is a comment-line? If I specify an area list, will splitter still check for max-nodes, or will the tiles be cut as specified? Gruss Torsten
