 	There are many features in this file format that we don't yet

+        
+        This format is designed to read the XML emitted when you tack
+        "&output=js" onto the end of a Google Maps route URL (use the 
+        "link to this page" option to get a usable URL.)  This allows 
+        you to plan a route using Google Maps, then download it and use 
+        it in your own mapping program or GPS receiver.  If you use a 
+        Unix-compatible operating system, this shell script might be 
+        useful:
+
+        #!/bin/sh
+        FROM="233 S. Wacker, Chicago, IL"
+        TO="1060 W. Addison, Chicago, IL"
