Hi Mike, I also think that we should try to show the original id when possible. I did not try it, but I think it would be less memory consuming to add a tag with the original id, as most elements do not have a fake id. Another problem here is that we have methods which combine different OSM elements, e.g. RoadMerger, which is not using a fake id but simply changing one way element and removes another. The tag would allow to combine the ids. What do you think? Gerd Mike Baggaley wrote
The attached patch improves the echo and echotags messages by including the id of the original element when a fake id is generated by mkgmap, thus enabling you to find it in OSM.
Please try, and commit if you are happy with the change.
Regards, Mike
