[mkgmap-dev] Recycling menu items in the Oregon

Thu Apr 15 20:53:20 BST 2010

Hi!

In the Oregon text strings can be easily changed since they are defined 
in xml-files in a directory inside the flash file system.
I recycled now e.g. truckstop (0x2f16) to amenity=taxi.
#amenity=fuel & fuel:HGV_diesel=yes [ 0x2f16 resolution 19 ] must be 
commented out in the point file,
amenity=taxi [0x2f16 resolution 20] added.

In the german.gtt file in Garmin/text, I changed
  <str>
    <tag>TXT_Truck_Stop_STR</tag>
    <txt>Truckstop</txt>
  </str>

to

  <str>
    <tag>TXT_Truck_Stop_STR</tag>
    <txt>Taxistand</txt>
  </str>

And I added an icon in my typfile
and now I can search for the next taxi point. :-)
