Guest joshgray Posted July 5, 2001 Share Posted July 5, 2001 Going on a road trip next month and want to plan on hittng some caches on the way. Does anyone have files of all/any of the above states' caches that can open in easy/expertgps or anything else? I _really_ want to avoid downloading them all by hand.. Perhaps jeremy is almost done with the multi download option? ------------------ JoshGray eTrex Basic http://joshgray.myip.org Quote Link to comment
Guest joshgray Posted July 6, 2001 Share Posted July 6, 2001 i just made a quick little perl script that will combine a dir of .loc files into a single one, if anyone wants it email me (without the two dashes) g-ps_josh-gray@hotmail.com ------------------ JoshGray eTrex Basic http://joshgray.myip.org Quote Link to comment
Guest ClayJar Posted July 6, 2001 Share Posted July 6, 2001 If they're the XML .loc's you download from geocaching.com, you can actually just type "copy file1.loc+file2.loc+file3.loc+... Total.loc". In DOS, that'll concatenate all the files into Total.loc, which will yield a file that's not perfect XML, but it'll load fine (and it's easier than installed perl on Win*). Quote Link to comment
Guest jeremy Posted July 6, 2001 Share Posted July 6, 2001 I really need to get the multiple download waypoint thingy working. I'll try to get it done this weekend. Jeremy Quote Link to comment
Guest joshgray Posted July 7, 2001 Share Posted July 7, 2001 wow.. two things came out of this thread, i learned you can concatinate files simply in dos (doh!) and jeremy is gonna finish the multi download thingy ! score. seriously tho, that option is going to be soooooo handy, not even for planning trips like my situation, but just for finding and plotting caches in your own area.. ------------------ JoshGray eTrex Basic http://joshgray.myip.org Quote Link to comment
Guest joshgray Posted July 9, 2001 Share Posted July 9, 2001 any luck finishing up the multi-d/l option? How about opening up your database so that some of us can run our own queries (sp?) on it? that would be sweet.. ------------------ JoshGray eTrex Basic http://joshgray.myip.org Quote Link to comment
