--index and TYP files
Just trying out this new option and I get: Could not open /home/markb/OSM/M0000000.TYP when creating mdr file Now I can see that it's barfing on the TYP file that I want to include in my gmapsupp.img. Is it possible to ignore the TYP file as far as the MDR is concerned or do I have to change how I make the map? Cheers, Mark

You do know that the index cannot yet be written by mkgmap, but has to be reversed by Mapsource? (or am I wrong this time?)

Hi Steve,
What Felix said is true, but all the same it should be ignoring that file when building the index. Now fixed.
Thanks for the fix. Actually, I don't know anything about reversing the index - are you planning to implement that capability so that we don't have to use mapsource at all to get a searchable map onto the gps? Cheers, Mark

I hope to, but it will not be immediately as there is some research needed before I will know how difficult it is going to be. ..Steve
