[Merkaartor] Add own file formats?

[Norbert Wenzel]

Hi,

I wanted to ask if there is a possibility to add new file formats to 
Merkaartor by just adding DLLs/SOs. I do not wan't to compile the whole 
Merkaartor and set up all the QT dependencies, but I'd really like to 
directly import the strange CSV format, my logger produces.

At the moment I run a self-coded app (actually a friend coded it, so I 
do not have sources at the moment and it is in C# with WPF, which really 
slows down the startup) which converts the special CSV from the logger 
into a more or less good GPX.

I'd like to build a small DLL which is copied to a plugins folder loaded 
at startup, so I can directly use my CSV. Or I might even (if I really 
get bored) do live connections to my logger and do some live mapping as 
a passenger (of course!) in a train or car.

So are there possibilities to create plugins at the moment?

Norbert
