Openmoko News - MokoGeocaching

[wraggster]

This is a litle gtk python script that searches the geocaching.com site for caches near your current position or a user specified lattitude and longitude and add the cache as a poi in tangogps.

This is version 0.1 and it is not pretty neither the kode or the aesthetics.

The script can right now:
get gps location from phone
user can manually set location
user can specifi range
script can download matching geocaches and add as poi
read geocaching.com username and password from configuration file

Future plans:
threaded gtk and downloading
code commenting and sanitizing
unicode support
gui input for username and password


Installation:
install python-sqlite3 and python-pygtk
manually copy the modules, listet in the end of this note, from python 2.5 tarball
