Hi!
In the Oregon text strings can be easily changed since they are defined in xml-files in a directory inside the flash file system. I recycled now e.g. truckstop (0x2f16) to amenity=taxi. #amenity=fuel & fuel:HGV_diesel=yes [ 0x2f16 resolution 19 ] must be commented out in the point file, amenity=taxi [0x2f16 resolution 20] added.
In the german.gtt file in Garmin/text, I changed <str> <tag>TXT_Truck_Stop_STR</tag> <txt>Truckstop</txt> </str>
to
<str> <tag>TXT_Truck_Stop_STR</tag> <txt>Taxistand</txt> </str>
And I added an icon in my typfile and now I can search for the next taxi point. :-)

Interesting stuff - first step towards hacking the firmware. Shame this doesn't work with all Garmin models. -- Charlie
