Highway trip planner
.description
RoutePlanner is an update to Jim Butterfield's RoadRoute program. The
following enhancements have been made:
· A graphic user interface has been added, using Stefan Stuntz's MUI
system.
· The program now incorporates fuel consumption data as part of its output.
· Highway classifications have been added. You can adjust the master speed
values for each classification, depending on your driving habits. *
· You may choose up to 20 intermediate cities on your route, making
realistic "round trips" possible.
· Named map files can be loaded using extended selection, double-clicking
on map file icons, or on the command line.
· Includes comprehensive documentation, supplemental utilities, and two
map files, designed for small and large machines.
· Notification of crossing state lines, and arriving in intermediate
cities.
Best of all, you can use your existing RoadRoute database files with
RoutePlanner. Simply use the included "RouteConv" utility to import
the basic structure, then use "RouteEdit" to add any necessary highway
classification data.
* Requires enhanced databases.
