![]() | ![]() | ![]() | The getwrite Command |
The getwrite command gets information from the receiver and writes it to a file:
getwrite IN-TYPES FORMAT [OUT-PARAMS] [OUT-TYPES] PATHwhere
IN-TYPES are the data types to get; the possible types
are WP, RT and TR; all can be used as
an abbreviation of WP RT TR;
FORMAT [OUT-PARAMS] is the output file format and its
parameters (if any); use show formats for a
list of the currently accepted formats;
OUT-TYPES
may be absent in which case they are taken to be IN-TYPES;
if RT occurs in IN-TYPES then WP can appear
in OUT-TYPES but no other type "conversions" are allowed; some
file formats impose that there is a single data type per file;
all can be used as an abbreviation of WP RT TR;
PATH is the path to the output file, or, in the
case of the Shapefile format, the path to the Shapefiles
basename (file extensions will be discarded). If the PATH
is stdout output will be to the standard output unless the
format is the Shapefile format (in which case the
command fails). Existing files will be silently overwritten.
This command only works with Garmin receivers.
