I ran testdbfawk and it took a long time to run and gave me a bunch of
text, below is the output when it got towards the end.
Can someone please just send me a sample shape file and dbfawk that goes so
I can mess around with it and figure out how to get open street maps to
work and show text? I have so much other work, GPS, TNC, Radio, and the
event I have to serve comms at is coming up in under 2 weeks.
If open street maps doesen't work natively, what other sources are you guys
even getting maps from, like what is Xastir designed to run natively?
