[mkgmap-dev] Customised Style Files - <finalize> section

Wed Jun 4 17:03:30 BST 2014

To make minor customisations of the default style, it is necessary to 
unpack the files and edit them, e.g. by putting an include near the 
start of each file.

If I understand rightly, the <finalize> section is executed for all 
matches, even if they have already been matched previously. Am I right 
here? If this is the case, the include could appear in the <finalize> 
section and would override earlier rules.

It would save unpacking and editing each file if the <finalize> section 
always contained an include of a customisation file, which the user 
could specify with a command line option (e.g. 
--user-custom-style=path). If this did not exist, it could be ignored or 
point to a default dummy file.

Is this a useful and feasible idea?

Thanks,

Roger
