Yes, that's exactly what happens.
Maybe the help is not clear enough?
"--process-destination
Splits all motorway_link, trunk_link, primary_link, secondary_link,
and tertiary_link ways tagged with destination into two or three parts where
the second part is additionally tagged with mkgmap:dest_hint=true.
The code checks for the tags destination, destination:lanes,
destination:street and some variants with :forward/:backward like
destination:forward or destination:lanes:backward. If a value for
destination is found, the tag destination is set to it and the way is split.
This happens before the style rules are processed.
This allows to use any routable Garmin type (except 0x08 and 0x09)
for that part so that the Garmin device tells the name of
this part as hint which destination to follow.

What problem do you have with echotags?
I think it works good enough for questions like yours.

No, echotags expects a string constant as parm, and it prints all tags of an object

Betreff: Re: [mkgmap-dev] Exit_hint and Dest_hint result is not what I was expectingSince the result string was:Exit 18 Beck Rd ~ Beck Road
The only place in the code with a "~" is
line 89'${destination:street} ~ ${destination}' |
Can I use echotags to display the actual value of a variable
{echotags ${destination}) ?

Hi Greg.
when mkgmap:dest_hint=true matches than mkgmap has either found a destination tag in the OSM
data or it has filled destination with one of the alternative values like
destination:forward, destination:street, destination:lanes and so on.
Maybe that is not a good idea, maybe mkgmap should fill a prefixed varible instead.
Does that help?

Betreff: [mkgmap-dev] Exit_hint and Dest_hint result is not what I was expectingI have an exit with a highway=motorway_link and destination:street=Beck Road. I have a node with highway=junction and ref=18.
I was trying to get:Exit 18 Beck Rd
But I am getting:Exit 18 Beck Rd ~ Beck Road
My line file contains:
dest_hint=* { delete dest_hint }highway=* & mkgmap:dest_hint=true { set destination:ref = '${destination:ref|subst:South=> S|subst:North=> N|subst:East=> E|subst:West=> W|subst:I =>I-|subst:M =>M-|subst:US =>US-}';set destination = '${destination|subst:/=>,}';set destination:street = '${destination:street|subst:;=>,|subst: Road=> Rd|subst: Street=> St|subst: Avenue=> Ave|subst: Mile=> Mi|subst: Boulevard=> Blvd|subst: Parkway=> Pkwy|subst: Highway=> Hwy|subst: Southwest=> SW|subst: Northwest=> NW|subst: Southeast=> SE|subst: Northeast=> NE}';}

I used different symbols to tell me which code is being executed. Since the result string contains a "~" I think it is executing '${destination:street} ~ ${destination}' which is strange, since there is no DESTINATION tag at all.
Can someone see why I am getting "Exit 18 Beck Rd ~ Beck Road" when I should be getting "Exit 18 Beck Rd"?
Attached are screenshots and actual osm.pbf data for just this intersection.
