+flannelman Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 I want to go paperless with the help of my palm m130 pda. I already use gsak to transfer the waypoints to my garmin etrex legend. Can someone give me a good idea about how to go paperless using gsak? I have already read the article in goecacher u on paperless caching but it doesn't really say much about gsak.

+jlday70 Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 I use cachmate on my palm it interfaces with Gsak, and has seemed to be the perfect combination so far. Quote Link to comment
+shay_m Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 How about something that works on WinCE devices? Quote Link to comment
+flannelman Posted January 2, 2006 Author Share Posted January 2, 2006 I knew I would get a quick reply! Seems that cachemate is a popular one. Does it have a good how to to get me started? Quote Link to comment
+JDandDD Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 The topic is about a Palm so I'l through my voice in with Cachemate as well. And yes, its documentation does make it easy to get started. Its very intuitive and GSAK makes the process of sending caches to cachemate really simple. You should have no problems. JDandDD Quote Link to comment
+flannelman Posted January 2, 2006 Author Share Posted January 2, 2006 Thanks for the info. I'll try it out. Quote Link to comment
+Sputnik 57 Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 There is a great tutorial on using CacheMate and GSAK here. Quote Link to comment
+Alan2 Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 How about something that works on WinCE devices? Pocket PC use Windows unlike the Palm. For PPC you use gpxsonar on your PPC and GSAK on your PC. Quote Link to comment

You can take the GSAK -> .html export -> plucker or sunrise -> plucker on PDA. Ranting sidebar: I find GSAK maddening, like it was programmed by someone who had never seen another program's interface. Totally counterintuitive and I have been doing techdork stuff for about 30 yrs. I know that is kin to heresy in this forum but there it is. I have deleted it and use gpsbabel+gpxspinner for my parsing+htmlgenerating needs, and sunrise for pluckerising. Quote Link to comment

+blindleader Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 like it was programmed by someone who had never seen another program's interface.How is that different from 98% of all software available today Quote Link to comment

Hoorayyy! Quote Link to comment
