I'm using gpsbabel on a Ubuntu (edgy) Linux laptop to download data from
a Garmin GPS device.

I wrote a small python script that calls gpsbabel with a unique output
filename (mostly based on the current date).

For me, a graphical interface is of no use. Once I had figured out which
options to use, it's the same command over and over again.
