Even the original closed source wherigo player is so bad that it's not very entertaining. A reverse-engeneered open source variant probably won't make it more fun.
Seriously, there isn't even a documentation of the cartridge format. So no, i don't plan to work on wherigos.
Will there be support for Wherigo in the the foreseeable future?
I have no cartridges near me but I want to check this out and see if I like it as much as Geocaching.
good app for geocaching. i love it! it is really handy. had a lot of fun using it
An absolute 'must have' for all geocachers. Full featured at least with the map widget for all important maps from openstreetmap, google & co.
Many thanks for that great piece of software!
There's no such thing as a "native GPS format". It's just convention which one to use for which purpose. E.g. geocachers usually use "NS/EW deg min.minfrac" while openstreetmap users prefer "+/- deg.degfrac". Another question is whether you always use the decimal point or honour localization and use a decimal comma. The do you want to have the degrees sign added or not?
It's just a matter of preference. It might indeed be possible to extend gpxview to allow to change its standard format. But that would also confuse geocaching beginners as they are just used to their common format.
I notice the native format of the Nokia's GPS is decimal while GPXView is in Degrees, Minutes,Minute.decimal. it would be very useful to be able to choose which format. When you attempt to copy a coordinate from GPX view into your Mameo Mapper, it rejects it as invalid as a result of the differing formats.
Please report bugs via email to me (email can be found under Menu->About->Credits) or via the email lists or bug tracker at https://garage.maemo.org/projects/gpxview/. This way i can ask questions and get things clarified and finally it can be documented that a bug is fixed.
For your bug: Thanks for reporting this. It is fixed in SVN and will be fixed in the next release.
Very nice app and works almost well with gpx-files created by GcTour greasemonkey script. But it seems that there are problems in parsing cache descriptions with empty hints-tag (
I very much enjoy using this app, I just wish my GPS was better!
Very handy app! It would be nice if I could download opencaching.de gpx files with it so I could use it spontaneously.
I see new updates being made but the changelog on the homepage is not being updated.
Very nice application for geocaching! The only feature I'd like to see is a way to list found caches by date or date range -- handy when it comes time to log finds. It'd also be nice to see a field somewhere that shows when a cache was published.
NIce application for geocaching. It also works with the FREE (as in speech) gpx-files availabale on opencaching.de and its siblings.

This is by far my most used and favorite N810 application.
Is there any chance it could get ported to other platforms such as Desktop linux/Windows, or even android?
