Hi
Given these results, I’d like to ask you to reconsider your proposed action to remove the --lower-case option and code. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mkgmap/dev/option-review
Yes, you are right it should remain. I've just had to explain so many times why it doesn't work on the Legend era devices that I've got a thing against it!
Isn’t --lower-case a little bit of a misnomer, as it actually does not lower-case but inhibits the upper-casing? Perhaps these three options would be adequate: * Absence of option upper-cases everything. This is the most safe default to get maps that work on all devices, I assume. * --upper-case-streets option provides working maps on older devices like the GPSmap 60CSx but with the nicer mixed-case POI names. Could this be the default or are there devices that do not support mixed case POI names? * --keep-case option for recent devices. This is --lower-case renamed. rj
