[Freegis-list] Garmin MapSource Format

[joanne cook]

Hi Jeroen,
 
This looks very useful indeed- though I can't see img files on the list of supported formats at a quick glance. If there had been a free and open source solution to this problem that I knew of, I'd have suggested it but I spent a long time trying to find any solution at all and this was the only achievable (and cheap) one!

Oh, obviously, being on the freegis list, I didn't mention that 
gpsbabel is free and open source software.
