Thanks for feedback and interest. There is a simple manual page (see https://github.com/pytrainer/pytrainer/blob/master/man/pytrainer.7) but installation on your system depends on how you get pytrainer. Please check with correspondent package mantainer for OpenSuse, we are happy to support if there is any issue building pytrainer for any distribution. > I infer from all the links that one must download the data from the > watch using a variety of means (gpsbabel or garmintools) (neither of > which have much documentation either) into one of several formats (TCX > seems the more popular) and then upload these data into PyTrainer. Actually the idea is that pytrainer directly retrieve data from your Garmin Forerunner using third party applications. > Is that correct? If there is a manual Where is it?

As far as I know there is no step by step guide available but of course you can check how everything works looking at source code available on GitHub: https://github.com/pytrainer/pytrainer. Please feel free to create a new one so it can be integrated in the wiki (https://github.com/pytrainer/pytrainer/wiki) > Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately I can help further on this because I have never owned one of them.
