With these two rules, even if they are run in same order as they are written, the second one could never have an effect if ${name} is defined.
highway=* { name '${name} (${ref})' | '${ref}' | '${name}' } highway=* { name '${name} ${name1}' | '${name1}' | '${name}' }
This is because you can only set the name once. If ${name} is set then the name will be set in the first rule and so the only way that the second rule can be used is if ${name1} is set and ${name} is not set.
You could fix that by doing everything together, if that is the effect you want:
highway=* { name '${name} (${ref})' | '${ref}' | '${name} ${name1}' | '${name1}' | '${name}' }

The problem ist that generating a list that does everything together will become to complex, say you have to write down all combination for 10 keys. Or am I missing something? The problem is that if I write everything into one line, and one key listed there is not present on highway=* it will fail. highway=* { name '${name} (${ref})' | '${ref}' | '${name} ${name1}' | '${name1}' | '${name}' } would become for one more value highway=* { name | '${ref} ${name} ${name1} ${name2}' | '${name} ${name1} ${name2}' | '${ref} ${name1} ${name2}' | '${ref} ${name} ${name2}' | '${ref} ${name} ${name}1' | '${ref} ${name} | '${ref} ${name1} | '${ref} ${name2} | '${name} ${name1} | '${name} ${name2} | '${name1} ${name2} | '${name}' | '${name1}' | '${name2}' | '${ref}' } Adding one more and it gets even worse....... but adding 10 more keys and this list will grow into eternity..... Now the problem is that I don't want to have the value of the key in the name itself each time, but on presence of a key I wan't to have another value inside. so if route=mtb is present I want to have mtbrt in the name, or for route=bicycle I would like to have cyrt and so on. So I have to run some tests whether values are present or not, which would make the task to put everything into on line even more difficult...
