Hi - to test if --index now works out of the box, I just used mkgmap r2226 to generate a gmapsupp.img for my Nuvi SD card (I'm a linux user, no mapsource).
It works! However street name search string need to start exactly with the street name prefix entered in OSM, example: for a street (via in italian) named "Via John Fitzgerald Kennedy" - known by everyone as Kennedy Street (i.e without the first name) - I've to tape exactly "Via John..." while using Garmin maps I can just enter "Kennedy" to get all the streets containing the word "Kennedy"
Is it possible to search street names as I'm doing with POIs, i.e. to get the list of items %matching% the keyword I enter?
I would appreciate any hint,
Thanks
