[mkgmap-dev] latin1 an index creation

Mon May 7 00:57:42 BST 2012

Hi Steve,
sorry for my late answer. I tried it again.

If I use only --code-page=.... for my maps of Germany, Alps and Great 
Britain index wont be created. There are some tmp-files remaining. If I 
use --code-page=.... --latin1 everything is fine.

My maps of Turkey, Scandinavia, BeNeLux, Poland-Czech, Denmark, Middle 
Asia and Patagonia works fine in both cases.

Do you have any explanation for that?

Henning
