QLandkarteGT - GPS mapping (GeoTiff and vector) and GPSr management
SYNOPSISqlandkartegt [ -d | --debug ] [ -h | --help ] -m FD | --monitor=FD ] [
-n | --no-splash ] [ files... ]
DESCRIPTION
QLandkarteGT is a versatile tool for GPS maps in GeoTiff format as well
as Garmin's img vector map format. QLandkarteGT is the successor of
QLandkarte. Among various improvements (e.g. 2D/3D map rendering and
reduced resource demands) the major difference is its device-indepen‐
dent architecture, which is not limited to Garmin devices anymore.
Additionally, QLandkarteGT serves as a frontend to the GDAL tools, to
make georeferencing of scanned maps feasible for users. In contrast to
similar tools (e.g. QGis) its straightforward interface is especially
suited for non-scientific users.
OPTIONS
QLandkarteGT currently understands the following options. Note that
long options must be specified in full (by now).
-d
--debug
Enable additional debugging messages to standard output.
-h
--help Print a short option summary, and exit.
-m FD
--monitor=FD
Monitor the file descriptor FD for activity. If any new data
arrives on the descriptor, a single byte is read from it, all
currently active data are discarded, and the geo data files that
have been specified at the end of the command-line when starting
QLandkarteGT are read and evaluated again.
-n
--no-splash
Do not display the splash screen on startup.
All remaining positional arguments are considered names of geo data
files to be read and evaluated upon startup.
