I wonder if there is a link somewhere to explain how to apply patches.
Markus, I don't claim to be an expert. In fact I wished one of the gurus replied so I could also get a better idea. AFAIK to apply a patch you will first have to know how to build MkGMap from source. 1)Download the source using the [SRC]link from http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/snapshots/ 2)Unzip it using e.g. 7-Zip 3)Read README.java in the Doc folder that explains how to build MkGMap 4)To apply a patch to the source (before building it) you will need DiffUtil http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/diffutils/, and like Valentijn remarked: it is not for the faint hearted, vide http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/pipermail/mkgmap-dev/2009q3/004291.html, but maybe you are not fainthearted, and maybe you will write a nice tutorial as you go along :) PS Will the gurus please correct me where I'm wrong, or elaborate where necessary?
