OK, good to know.  Which brings me to another question: Can I use decimal
gps positions (like the ones Google use) to pinpoint stations?  I tried the
following, but I don't know if that's correct:

*cs s-merc
*cs out s-merc
*fix A 59.9100129 10.6824754 0

So it parses the comments as well?

And don't you know it, another question:  The depth bar on the top-right
side in Aven seems wrong with my test data:

*data diving from to length bearing fromdepth todepth
A B 25 160 12 16
B C 12 120 16 20

The depth bar goes from 4m to 8m.  How do I make it go from 12 to 20?

Thanks for all your help!
