Re: [mkgmap-dev] [PATCH v2] - styling for the power user

Can we have the best of both worlds?

I think we already have both possibilities. We can use any preprocessing we like and then use a selfmade style which uses fantasy tags. Or make a preprocessor which outputs the well-known tags. This works best if everything is kept in the style system and next to nothing is hardcoded in the mkgmap code, because changing a style file is not a big deal, but fiddling with the java code isn't for everyone. For the newcomer user mkgmap always should produce a sensible map out-of-the-box.
