Recent releases


Changes: This release can directly use purchased maps in the GPSy format (originally for the Mac). It can also work offline, plotting either its own logs or tracks downloaded from the GPS using GPSManager; either to replay the journey, or simply to plot all the points and write the map out to an image file. There are also some minor enhancements, such as joining the dots with a line.
