gpx2ipod Description

gpx2ipod - A Mac-based paperless caching for people who own an iPod but not a PDA Mac-based paperless caching for people who own an iPod but not a PDA. gpx2ipod will allow you to batch-convert a pile of .gpx files to plain text for use with the iPod's "Notes" feature. Super-fast: cut your geocaching prep time to a few minutes.Here are some key features of "gpx2ipod":· gpx2ipod handles both individual and Pocket Query (multiple-cache).gpx files.· Cache files will display alphabetically on the iPod for easy access in the field.· gpx2ipod can inject generated text files directly into your iPod (most users) or into a local "output" folder (you might not have an iPod but might still want the text files for other purposes).· gpx2ipod is a Terminal application (shell script), but may be run painlessly with a double-click -- no shell experience required.· gpx2ipod is available either with or without the gpsbabel command-line binary bundled. gpsbabel is licenced under the GPL, and thus so is gpx2ipod. See LICENSE for info.Requirements:· gpsbabel 1.3.4 or higherWhat's New in This Release:· Renamed project to "gpx2ipod." · Now requires gpsbabel 1.3.4 or higher, taking advantage of new gpsbabel "splitoutput" feature in order to overcome the cut command's 99-split limit (thanks Robert Lipe!). · Now double-clickable - much better user experience. · Now copies generated files directly to iPod. · Now stores user preferences in a config file. · Now optionally copies original .gpx files into an "archive" folder for future use.What's New in This Release:· No longer generates errors when encountering caches with slashes in their names. Now works properly when installed in a path containing a space (such as "/Applications/GPS Apps").
