[mkgmap-dev] Errors converting "mapnik.txt" into "mapnik.typ" (information only)

Wed Mar 25 14:38:22 GMT 2020

mapnik.txt (128.746 bytes,	19-03-2020 08:31)

I assume (...) "mapnik.txt" is to be converted into "<nnnnn>.typ".

Using TYPViewer 4.5.50 two Errors during conversion:

********************************************************************
Errors in the file  : mapnik.txt
********************************************************************

Line 1959 : "String=River, Wadi (Intermittent)"

To Resolve, update:
String=River, Wadi (Intermittent)
into:
String1=0x00,River (Intermittent)
String2=0x01,Cours d’eau (intermittent)
etc.

[end]

Also be aware:
mapnik.txt is [UTF-8] encoding
I assume (...) Garmin expects [Windows 1252] encoding.
If [Windows 1252] is required, in TYPViewer "Open a TXT (Utf8) file...".
Converted TYP file will have same encoding.
