Thats interesting.
I thought always gpsmapedit relays on cGPSmapper to parse the garmin img 
format. I personally dont use this tool, (no windows available) so I 
dont know it.

Also I'm astonished, that there is source code available. Reading the 
license site it says:

      2.2 Reverse Engineering.

You may not modify, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble (except to 
the extent applicable laws specifically prohibit such restrictions) or 
create derivative works based on the Software, or any portion thereof.

But on the other hand:

      2.8 Source Code.

You may evaluate the Source Code freely while the right to use and 
modify the Source Code for development of own products is granted only if
(a) the registration fee for the Software is paid;
(b) it is prohibited to remove original copyright notes in the source files;
(c) you may use Source Code in own programs, provided that the copyright 
notes of the programs should include the reference to the Author 
(portions "Konstantin Galichsky, kg at geopainting.com") and to the 
Software Web page ("http://www.geopainting.com").
