GPSSC - Trekbuddy view - Using Tilemill to create an atlas.

Tilemill can export OpenStreetMap maps as a .mbtile file. You can then convert that with my MapMirage program into a Trekbuddy atlas.
My MapMirage program is here.
Setting up Tilemill is a lengthy process and the instructions for it are poor and in some places also wrong but if you want to configure or customise your maps and have a few days to spare you might want to give it a go.
The install instructions are here.
Here are some tips that I remember from when I installed Tilemill.
I would suggest that you do not use the password postgres_007% instead use something simple to type in like 123. You will be using this password a lot and using postgres_007% gets very tedious. It also makes using dos batch files harder because you have to use two % symbols in the batch files.
Install 32 bit versions of the programs if your PC has a 32bit processor.
Put any commands the instructions tell you to type in dos batch files and call them something like go.bat. You can copy paste from the instructions. End each dos batch file with a @pause line so that you can read the output. Double click a batch file in Windows explorer to run it. If something did not work you can than edit the batch file, resave it and run it again.
In step B 4 the osm2pgsql import style file under D:\Temp is named default.style.
In this line osm2pgsql.exe -H localhost -d osm -U postgres -s -c -G -k -C 800 -S D:\Temp\default.style D:\Temp\Cyprus.osm add a -W option so that you get prompted for your password, change -C 800 to -C 400 if you are getting cache size errors.
In Step D 2 change any instances of postgres_007% to your password.
