+<para>This is the format for the Ricoh 500SE GPS logging camera.
+</para>
+<para>
+ This camera creates log files on the SD card in a folder name "GPSLOG" that
+ are named "YYMMDDN.LOG" wher NN increments from 00 through 99. The camera
+ appends new tracks into the current file, hence the "new track" field. When
+ the current file reaches about 500K, NN increments and logging continues into
+ the next file. Therefore, there may be multiple tracks in each log
+ file, and tracks may span one or more files.
+</para>
+<para>
+ GPSBabel will recognize the "new track" field and will generate a new track,
+ so if you specify multiple files in the correct order, your tracks will be
+ automatically split sensibly.
