* new option in file config.tcl indicating whether GPSMan data can be
appended to an existing file when saving; to be used with care as a
file with conflicting time offsets can result that will not be
loaded by GPSMan; asked by Zvi Grauer.
* explicit support for the Garmin Street Pilot I, with thanks to
Martin Espinoza who sent the protocols list.
In addition, I tried to clean up the port a wee bit:
* I removed a line in the Makefile that had been commented-out
Wed Jul 26 08:32:31 2006 UTC (r168793).
* I changed the USE_TK_RUN specification to permit the use of
Tcl/Tk 8.5 (and tested that it brings in 8.5 if that's
available, and that gpsman works with it).

So standardize on that, and move them to the end of the file when necessary.
Also fix some more whitespace, and remove more "signature tags" of varying
forms, like -- name, etc.

A few other various formatting issues
* elevation graphs for tracks using gnuplot; implemented by plug-ins contributed by Rudolf Martin (rudolf.martin_at_gmx.de).
* for tracks, improved computation of total (or cumulative) ascent/descent, computation of rest periods, total resting time and average speed in motion, estimated time for a hiking trail; contributed by Rudolf Martin.
* new configuration parameter: user temporary files directory; must be set correctly for GPSMan to work; it defaults to .tmp under the user GPSMan directory.
* new user options: altitude threshold when computing cumulative ascent/descent, operating system commands to display an image file and open a terminal (command-line) window; default of altitude threshold is appropriate for GPS receivers with non-barometric altimeter.
* change in default for user option (was a configuration parameter): the print command starts now by being empty (meaning unavailable).
* new projections: Mercator spherical case, Equidistant Cylindrical, and their particular cases EPSG:3857 (also known as EPSG:900913, EPSG:102113) and EPSG:32663 (Plate Carree with WGS 84 datum); asked by Rudolf Martin.
* in order to avoid ill formed or inconsistent data files, appending to a file is no longer an option when writing to an existing file except in the case of results of computations, real-time logs and contents of information windows.
* windows presenting results that depend on the definition of a route or track, such as computations or graphs, may be closed when the item changes after being edited or being replaced when data is read-in; based on a change suggested by Rudolf Martin.
* unavailable expression of plug-ins are now evaluated at top level so that global variables can be used.
* explicit support for the Garmin GPS 72H receiver; with thanks to Justin Arundell and Julian Barragan who sent protocol lists.

Here are the documented changes from 6.3 to 6.31:
- importation of waypoints from Kismet .network files with
location information, asked by Bernd Stuht; some new options
on this should be configured by editing config.tcl.
- map window can now be resized.
- WARNING: Garmin USB support for some recent Garmin receivers
will need at least version 0.28 of the garmin_gps Linux kernel
driver.
- updates to Garmin support following the specifications
made available in May 2006, but not (yet) covering some new
protocols for fitness-oriented receivers.
- explicit support for several Garmin receivers or their new
firmware versions, including: GPSMAP 60CSX and 76CSX, EDGE 205 and
305, GPS 18USB, eTrex Legend Cx, Forerunner 205, and GPS 60; with
thanks for all those who sent protocol lists: Doug Larrick,
Thomas Zumbrunn, Jiri Dvorak, Daniel Dorau, Nenad, Elric Milon
Beltran, Michel Equeter, Dominic Hargreaves, Sébastien Roy, Nicolas
Brouard, Reinhold Pschierer, Sven Anders, Jon Stockill.
