Hi Christian, I hacked a script together, so you can now route from A to B via C. ( or via C, D, E etc ;-) ) I put it on the navit website [6] Please feel free to take a look and use (parts of) it for your own program. Erasing the current waypoint would be nice to do in a gui, now you need to edit the itinerary file.
Thanks for your help with this, i couldn't have done it without you!
