Hi Gerd Yes, I'd be happy to accept this. The problem with having suffixes wasn't that "the user must know them when searching for roads". It was that, at least for my eTrex, there is just a single entry in the STREET part of the search for all suffix variants, and then, after selecting that, all address in all variants are given in the result list. I've included Dave's additions for mapping some Africa countries to en_gb in an updated patch. Ticker On Mon, 2020-04-27 at 13:54 +0000, Gerd Petermann wrote:
Hi Ticker,
I've attached a slightly modified version which I would accept. My understanding is that the user must know the common suffixes configured in the list when searching for roads. The long list is much too long to remember. So, I'd prefer to omit the list and just explain that the use of - -road-name-config makes no sense in the UK.
