When you get your gdal install fixed, you might not want to use "." as the directory. Give it a name like "TdC_100" and it'll create a new subdirectory with all the files in it. If you do it with "." it'll dump 'em all in one place with names like "trail_points.shp" or whatever, and it can clutter your directory pretty badly (or clobber other conversions). And whatever you do, never, ever do: ogr2ogr -f "ESRI Shapefile" TdC_100.gpx Foobar.shp (i.e. putting input and output in that order, like every normal Unix command, because it'll use your intended input file as the destination file, and clobber it). -- 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://xastir.org/mailman/listinfo/xastir
