Also available is gpstr2shp.c, a program that translates GPStrans data files into Shapefile ones.

Installation

The enclosed Makefile defines TCLVERSION and assumes that

Using make will (in a Unix/Linux system) create the library gpsmanshp.so, while make install creates the corresponding Tcl index pkgIndex.tcl and copies these 2 files to the installation directory, and make clean removes the binary files and the index file.

Warning for users of Tcl8.4 There is a bug in Tcl8.4.4 that prevents the creation of the Tcl index pkgIndex.tcl. To avoid it the following package-8.3.tcl file (from Tcl8.3) is needed, and should be used with this Makefile.
