Hi,

> And tested in my Garmin, I generated the img with this:

> java -Xmx512m -jar mkgmap.jar --latin1 --gmapsupp --route philippines.osm
> 
> The file is 4.5 MB, my previous routable map from mkgmap-route-r806 is 8.5 MB.
> 
> The city search is working but cities have the following label:

> 
> AFAIK GBR is for Great Britain

> The routing defaults to the Garmin supplied map and not the OSM mkgmap output.

OK - 2 things:

1 - the OSM routing is not yet in the main SVN trunk so it won't be in the 
snapshot file. You need to check out the nod branch from the SVN repository.

2 - to avoid the GBR, you need to give a --country-abbr="???" option.

Cheers,
