Sharing a Map Tile Cache Daemon with a GUI plugin for options would be a good thing.

One more suggestion, is possible to make the Position Update preference persistent between sessions? So that the user doesn't have to turn it on at each start-up?

One other quick thought as this evolves...is it possible to get the estimated travel time to show with the directions.

This is quickly becoming my goto map tool, keep up the awesome work!

New Release - GeePS 0.0.4


Added functionality:
  • Save settings
  • Traffic and Bicycling Layers

New Shortcuts:
  • F: full screen
  • 0-9: zoom (0 is kind of funny because is the smallest zoom but it is on the right side of keyboard... on a next version will find a better meaning for it)

Awesome update!

Some quick observation:
- Although Traffic Layer status is saved between session, the layer isn't displayed automatically on restart. I have to turn it off and then on again to display the traffic layer. Same thing happens Auto position updates as well intermittently.
- For some reason the 0-9 zoom option aren't working for me at all. :confused: Has any one else been able to test that successfully?

I think I know why...will work on it.

Can't imagine what the problem is here. If anyone experience the same problem please report

Aahh, that was the problem, my bad. I didn't keep holding the blue button while pressing the num keys. Works perfectly now. Thanks!

I'd suggest "F" key to toggle full and normal screen.

Very nice to see quick updates...

Is it possible to have a double-pixel option like Maep? Hate my aging eyes :(
