Hi, navit 0.2.0~svn3255+dfsg.1-3 in debian unstable seems to now support a D-BUS interface that lets you control it from other applications.
For example, to go to 60.187 N, 24.601 E (Kauklahti, Finland) you can run dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.navit_project.navit /org/navit_project/navit/navit/0 org.navit_project.navit.navit.set_center_by_string "string:geo:24.601 60.187" To get something graphical I used location="$(zenity --entry --text "Enter coordinates (lon lat)")" dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.navit_project.navit /org/navit_project/navit/navit/0 org.navit_project.navit.navit.set_center_by_string "string:geo:$location" in a script that I can start from the icewm menu. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
