NAME

       QLandkarteGT - GPS mapping (GeoTiff and vector) and GPSr management

SYNOPSIS

       qlandkartegt  [ -d | --debug ] [ -h | --help ] -m FD | --monitor=FD ] [ -n | --no-splash ]
       [ files...  ]

DESCRIPTION

       QLandkarteGT is a versatile tool for GPS maps in GeoTiff format as well  as  Garmin's  img
       vector   map   format.  QLandkarteGT  is  the  successor  of  QLandkarte.   Among  various
       improvements (e.g. 2D/3D map rendering and reduced resource demands) the major  difference
       is its device-independent architecture, which is not limited to Garmin devices anymore.

       Additionally,  QLandkarteGT serves as a frontend to the GDAL tools, to make georeferencing
       of scanned maps feasible  for  users.  In  contrast  to  similar  tools  (e.g.  QGis)  its
       straightforward interface is especially suited for non-scientific users.

OPTIONS

       QLandkarteGT  currently understands the following options.  Note that long options must be
       specified in full (by now).

       -d

       --debug
              Enable additional debugging messages to standard output.

       -h

       --help Print a short option summary, and exit.

       -m FD

       --monitor=FD
              Monitor the file descriptor FD for activity.   If  any  new  data  arrives  on  the
              descriptor, a single byte is read from it, all currently active data are discarded,
              and the geo data files that have been specified at the end of the command-line when
              starting QLandkarteGT are read and evaluated again.

       -n

       --no-splash
              Do not display the splash screen on startup.

       All  remaining  positional arguments are considered names of geo data files to be read and
       evaluated upon startup.
