POIs with address information have this in their description when viewed on my eTrex, but the generation of this appears to be hard-coded. It would be nice to be able to have different information in there - opening hours for shops, or telephone numbers for pubs and hotels, for example.

So, would it be possible to make this more general? I'm thinking of having a tag, say "mkgmap:description", that if set would be used for this content. Then our style rules could be used to apply the above.

Easier (with the existing code) would be IMHO to hardcode more information and add descriptional lines (Address: ... Phone number: ... Website: ...) etc. Sometimes there are phonenumbers added, but they cannot easily be recognized as phone numbers since thy lack the prefixes. One time, I thought they were artifacts from the generating code instead of phone numbers. :-) The possible keys are really well defined, so it is easy for an experienced Java-Programmer to add a few new functions. That would also be easier to implement and it would not be necessary to change someting in the interface or style files. I looked at the Java-code: it would really just need some new functions that are pretty equal to the existing ones. You would just need the new mkgmap and see a lot more information. :-) Dani
