Hello,

looking into osm.xml i see Rules with Filters like:

<Filter>[tourism] = 'attraction'</Filter>

How can i find out what tags (right wording?  I mean keywords like 'tourism')
are available?  What values could they have?

Background is that i want to write an own Rule (with Filter) for country
names, i want to "highlight" a country and render a map, so i want to
make other countries a bit darker so i can still see them but see the
borders of the highlighted country clearly.

So i guess the tags i want to filter are in "world_borders".  Under what
tag are country names stored?

Does that make sense?  Is it clear what i want to do?

It would be great if anybody got a hint on this.


Best regards,
Torsten.
