Hi Albert,

about the Zander file issue:

A Zander waypoint file usually consists of an number of text lines, with one waypoint each. Each line has usually 44 characters. 0-12 is the name, 13-20 is latitude, 21-29 is longitude, 30-34 is altitude/elevation and 35-44 is an optional description. Some files I have found on http://soaringweb.org/TP/HomePage.html however have another field starting at 45, so that the lines can be 49 characters long. Usual values for that field are WP=Waypoint, HA=Home Airfield, WA=Airfield, WL=Landing Field.
If the field isn't found the waypoint is assumed to be a normal waypoint.

I hope I explained it well enought, if you have any more questions feel free to reply.

Hello,

today I could do some tests with the new XCSoarversion on my Fujitsu-Siemens Loox PDA with Windows Mobile. It worked very fine, even as I used the software for the first time, it was very easy to understand and to applicate. Congratulation to that.

In coherence with the new support of Zander turnpoint-files I found 2 small bugs:

1. The help text does not refer to the new file-extension .wpz

2. All waypoints in the file are declared as "turnpoints". Obviously the Zander code for the different kinds of waypoints is not decoded.

A simple way to decide between airports and turnpoints could be, that the waypoints in the airport-file with the extension .wz could be interpreted as "airports" whereas all waypoints in the turnpointfile with the extension .wpz could be be interpreted as "turnpoints"

Is there another possibility to solve the problem in the actual version?

The third bug seems somehow more serious:

In coherence with the HTC Advantage PDA with Windows Mobile 6.1 professional and PXA270-624MHz processor the installation interrupted and failed with the .cab-file as well as with the .exe-file.

With best regards

Albert
