Hi,

In the past I've used the autopilot to fly between
5-letter GPS waypoints.  IIRC, I would enter waypoints
using menu or waypoint file and engage/disengage using
<ctrl>-H.  Lately when I enter a 5-letter GPS waypoint
a message is issued in my shell window which reads: 

Failed to find STELR in basic.dat.gz
Failed to find MAILS in basic.dat.gz
Failed to find YARNN in basic.dat.gz

as examples.  However, a lat/lon pair do appear
alongside waypoint name in the pop-down waypoint menu,
so it could be that the right coordinates are being
accessed.  Maybe I just need to engage the waypoint
tracker in the autopilot?  I don't believe the KAP-140
is used to do this (?)

I'm using v0.9.8 from CVS checkout.

Thanks in advance.
Mike
