Let me turn the question around. Is there any need to have the TYP file not hardcoded?
At the moment I get the TYP file name from the arguments passed to mkgmap because I cannot assume that the TYP filename will be the same as the map name.
If I understand correctly your second point, I am not in favor of using wildcards for packaging the files because we just do not know what is in the directory and might package too much.
Thanks,

Let me turn your question. Why is only the Typ-File hard-coded an not every file ? At http://dev.openstreetmap.de/aio/germany-daily/img/ you can download the raw-info and make whatever you want to make from. For me it is no problem to use sed and change the *.nsi in a way user can use them from a drive with different path and foldernames. I was only woundering why only one file ist hard-coded.
