13 QLandkarteGT is a versatile tool for GPS maps in GeoTiff format as well
14 as Garmin's img vector map format. QLandkarteGT is the successor of
15 QLandkarte. Among various improvements (e.g. 2D/3D map rendering and
16 reduced ressource demands) the major difference is its device-indepenā
17 dent architecture, which is not limited to Garmin devices anymore.
18
19 Additionally, QLandkarteGT serves as a frontend to the GDAL tools, to
20 make georeferencing of scanned maps feasible for users. In contrast to
21 similar tools (e.g. QGis) its straightforward interface is especially
22 suited for non-scientific users.

25 QLandkarteGT currently understands the following options. Note that
26 long options must be specified in full (by now).
27
28 -d
29
30 --debug
31 Enable additional debugging messages to standard output.
32
33 -h
34
35 --help Print a short option summary, and exit.
36
37 -m FD
38
39 --monitor=FD
40 Monitor the file descriptor FD for activity. If any new data
41 arrives on the descriptor, a single byte is read from it, all
42 currently active data are discarded, and the geo data files that
43 have been specified at the end of the command-line when starting
44 QLandkarteGT are read and evaluated again.
45
46 -n
47
48 --no-splash
49 Do not display the splash screen on startup.
50
51 All remaining positional arguments are considered names of geo data
52 files to be read and evaluated upon startup.
