New:
4) Swap button (swap Origin fields with Dest by clicking once)
5) Clear Fields button. (Data in Origin and Dest fields should remain populated until cleared by user in order to expediate item #4 from this list.
6) 'Grab Dest' button. This could be the defacto multiple route feature, so it would be to where we append our routes. (This button grabs the Destination coords from the previous route added by user but puts it in Origin field automatically because we're appending another route now, so auto-update feature greys out to prevent being checked. Destination field clears to make room for the next destination to be typed in.)

Tell you what. I'll add to the "Download Route..." dialog box a "Use End of Current Route" checkbox right below the "Use GPS Location". I think that should be sufficient to handle your use case. I don't want to turn Maemo Mapper into a bloated "GPX Route Editor" - that's not what it's for.

I've already mentioned that I would add a swap button. A clear button may also be useful.

As for the different colors, I'd rather not introduce another color for routes. If you prefer not to see so many routes at once, then just save them as different GPX files and load them separately.

I only get *parts* of the pacific to show up and only from zoom 0-10. Everything else is just black screen.

FWIW, I've put a port of gpsd 2.33 on the 2006 application catalog today. There are no gui clients, and cgps seems broken, but 'gpspipe' works (and, of course, so does gpsd).

DBUS support is compiled in but untested.

Brad.

Another nice thing about using gpsd is we can pretty easily set up the 770 to be a bluetooth gps repeater for those times you want to tinker or compare the 770 head-to-head with another pda.

POI for Maemo Mapper

First: thanks Gnuite, good work.

Because I needed, I implemented poi for maemo-mapper. All poi is stored in sqlite database, code is very ugly, but works for me. See screenshot.

[#10] Implement GPX Driving Directions Internally
Does it mean that won´t be necessary to be connected to Internet in order that maemo mapper shows the route? Is that possible?

No, you will still need access to the internet. It just means that you won't have to go through http://gnuite.com:8080/cgi-bin/gpx.cgi in order to get directions (which is what the code does now). This is good for people behind firewalls that don't allow them to access websites at port 8080. It should also increase performance slightly, at the slight cost of added code in memory.

Very nice! This is important to have in a GPS program and I'm excited to try some points with it. Do you have any plans to allow creation/editing of POI on the 770? This would be ideal for marking places you'd like to return to or just manually entering POI on the fly.

Creating poi on n770? Why not, I will do that.

UPDATE: need some code clean-up, but working.

It looks like gpsd has been released for 2006, any idea when it will be available for use in maemo-mapper? I think you said this would solve my NMEA output problem?
