+# Sample mkgmap option file to create a map for a GARMIN GPS and compatible PC Programs

+# The options given here are a reasonable set for generating a routable map, but you

+# fixing paths, adjusting options etc.
+#
+# Generally, where the default value for an option as acceptable, it isn't specified here.
+# Please see the standard help information for details of what the options do.
+#
+# Typical command line invocation, after using the splitter to generate a set of tiles:
