+This option is a boolean flag to specicy whether Google Earth should
+draw lines from trackpoints to the ground.   It defaults to '0', which
+means no extrusion lines are drawn.   The option of '1' is, of course,
+most useful for points that aren't actually on the ground such as those

+This is a boolean flag that controls
+whether GPSBabel writes extensive data for each trackpoint generated.
+By default computed speed, timestamps, and so on are written with the default
+of '1' for this option.   If you are writing large tracks and do not value
+this information, you can reduce the size of the generated file substantially
+by turning this flag off by setting it to '0'.

+Units is a simple option.  Specify 's' for "statute" (miles, feet, and
