CSV dump

kd8ikt@kd8ikt:~/mokoloco$ cat poidb.cvs 
"idmd5","lat","lon","visibility","cat","subcat","keywords","desc","price_range","extended_open","creator","bookmarked","user_rating","rating","user_comment"
"109496141722186324","39.283409","-84.317535","0.0","14.0","0.0","home","home duh","3.0","0.0","","","","",""

conclusion
i'm looking into python for importing/parsing the lat lon name and desc inside each waypoint heading then export those into the tangogps sqlite poi.db

batch processing tracklogs

is there anyway to batch process a folder with convert2gpx? manually running it on 40 some odd traces is a pain.--Jerjozwik 20:23, 2 May 2009 (UTC)

for file in *.log; do convert2gpx $file > `basename $file .log`.gpx; done
