[mkgmap-dev] "streets-with-no-names" style

Tue Nov 18 23:36:55 GMT 2008

Hi,

Thanks to the new expression types (not-existing, not-equals), it has 
become really easy to create a map that highlights streets with no name.

I basically took an existing style and made the following changes to the 
"lines" file:

diff -u styles/test/lines styles/noname/lines

--- styles/test/lines       2008-11-09 13:03:55.000000000 +0100

It would be nice if mkgmap would come with a "highlight streets with no 
name"-style per default.

Cheers,
