I see the bz2 support in osmosis as being a I was suspecting this, tnx for confirmation.

Probably a brief note in the Wiki could save quite a bit of someone's time. Added to wiki. > bzcat planet.bz2 | osmosis --rx /dev/stdin --wn Nice on unixes, but I can't seem to read "/dev/stdin" in Cygwin. I tried that to pipe the planet straight from wget -> osmosis without writing the planet to file. putting native bzip in between would improve perofrmance quite a bit. wget -O - http://.... | bzip -c | osmosis -rx /dev/stdin ... Can Osmosis get some alias for /dev/stdin (eg "-" would mean stdin on reading tasks and stdout on writing tasks, or we can reserve and handle differently "stdin" and "stdout" file names) ? If we agree on this design i can implement it. Stefan _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dev
