[gps-talkusers] Re: creating a rout in text format

No, it will just provide the Route Waypoints and not the POIs. However, it
is possible to copy/append the POI information in summary format to a text
file. This will allow for you to intersperse the POI information among the
Route Waypoints. This will allow for you to see where POIss are along the
route and relative to each Waypoint. This sounds like a great feature
request. The option of getting all of the Route Waypoints and five nearest
POIs to each in Route Waypoint/Intersection and put the bearing to each POI
nearest its Route Waypoint. This will allow for an enriched text file with
Route Waypoint and POI information.
