I have just published a new release: 0.5.0

This release addresses the GUI shortcoming highlighted by @Feathers McGraw:
  • its possible to specify units (Metric or Imperial). Since we use only km and mi., there is no need to separate british from american, as far as I understand
  • to select the map (and few other settings), you are shown directory or file selection dialog. Should work for SD cards as well.
That was quick! Thank you very much for making those changes.

Since you seem to be on a roll, I noticed another thing the other day, when I was searching for pubs near my current location from within Poor Maps. No pubs were returned in the results despite there being several nearby, but there were a few public transport platforms in there for some reason...not sure if poor maps is requesting the wrong POI type, or if it's a server side thing? The map package was the one I created using the script as we discussed previously in this thread.
