Re: [Gvsig_english] Question about the new Junta de Castilla y Leòn extensions for gvSIG 1.1.2

[Agustin Diez Castillo]

In case anyone on a Mac wants to give a try to the gps  part of the  
new extension I've uploaded a somewhat functional app [1]. There is a  
two minutes video showing how to do it.
I guess the same will work in Linux. I put some libraries dicussed  
before in the NativeLibs and change the windows gpsbabel.exe by the  
mac binary but keeping the name (=gpsbabel.exe).
Don't worry too much about it 'cause César is working in full  
installers.
