[mkgmap-dev] Styles, typ and multiple languages

Wed Dec 30 22:24:44 GMT 2020

I've implemented the following;

created an inc file, with the following code:

# SETUP Name Translation to display names in correct codepage 1252 
non-unicode
name = * & mkgmap:country=MNG {set name='${name:en}' | '${int_name}' 
|'${name:pt}' | '${name:fr}' | '${name}' } #Mongolia
name = * & mkgmap:country=MAR {set name='${name:en}' | '${int_name}' 
|'${name:pt}' | '${name:fr}' | '${name}' }	#Morocco
name = * & mkgmap:country=MRT {set name='${name:en}' | '${int_name}' 
|'${name:pt}' | '${name:fr}' | '${name}' }	#Mauritania
name = * & mkgmap:country=DZA {set name='${name:en}' | '${int_name}' 
|'${name:pt}' | '${name:fr}' | '${name}' }	#Algeria
name = * & mkgmap:country=KAZ {set name='${name:en}' | '${int_name}' 
|'${name:pt}' | '${name:fr}' | '${name}' } #Kazakstan

name = * {name '$(name)'}

This results in a nicely "readable" map. More countries, just add more 
definitions.
