Thank you Stefan, I will give that a try!  I think I am grasping the
command line structures better now.


Quick question Lauri, ... is that Polygon file you referenced something I
can get my hands on?  The country2pts.txt looks like it might be quite
useful! :)

Best wishes, Fire Girl.

  E.g. java -jar osmosis.jar --read-xml file="planet-latest.osm"
  --bounding-polygon file="country2pts.txt" --write-xml
  file="germany.osm"
