You will have to work on a "dbfawk" file to tell Xastir how to render the lines, but this is the only format you listed that Xastir supports directly. All of the other formats will have to be massaged into something else to get Xastir to read it. A long time ago, there was an effort to get GDAL support into Xastir, and if that were completed then almost all the formats you listed would be supported. But it was not completed. -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM echo "prpv_a'rfg_cnf_har_cvcr" | sed -e 's/_/ /g' | tr [a-m][n-z] [n-z][a-m] _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
