New Mapping utility and updates of others – image 1

Today I uploaded an update to my TK_Utils package.
In this package is a new Mapper utility that can draw a map of any route from the track database.

Also provides options to include stations, mileposts and/or fuelpoints and can also add a grid if you like.
In it is also a profile drawing option but ths is more experimental and does not work well when there are lots of branches.My other utilites in the package are updated with some bug fixes and Archibald now can read and write eng/wag files.

RE: New Mapping utility and updates of others

Okrasa--Many thanks for "mapper"--a really useful addition to my MSTS toolkit.Some cautions before all the queries start:1. Make sure you have Dot.Net installed.2. No it is not instantaneous. For the impatient: watch the hourglass and your drive light. After you load a .trk file wait for it to complete reading it; then hit map or profile and wait a bit longer.3. 64 kbyte utilities? What nostalgia! But me like 'um plenty!
