Hello! I am generating maps in Russian charset, using --charset=cp1251. The resulting map displays correctly in Garmin devices, but not in MapSource. AFAIK, the CGPSMapper-generated maps display Russian characters in MapSource correctly. May be there is some special bit in the map (or preview file?) that needs to be set to tell MapSource that charset isn't a default one? -- Totus tuus, Glebius. GLEB-RIPE

You must set right charset in .TDB file too. AFAIR it is option --xcode-page -- С уважением, liosha mailto:xliosha@gmail.com

Actually I needed to RTFS, since it requires numerical argument. It also appeared that --xcode-page is obsoleted, --code-page should be used. -- Totus tuus, Glebius. GLEB-RIPE
