In addition to reading arguments from the command line, GPSBabel can
read directions from batch (or command) files via the <code class="option">-b</code> option.
</p><p>
These files are ideal for holding long command lines, long file lists, complex filters
and so on. You can use all GPSBabel options and combinations when writing
such files. Nesting batch files by using the <code class="option">-b</code> option within a batch file is supported.
</p><p>
Here is an example demonstrating segmenting a large command line
by placing the input and filtering directives in a file called 'all_my_files'.
</p><p><strong class="userinput"><code>gpsbabel -b all_my_files -o gdb -F all_my_tracks.gdb</code></strong></p><p>
'all_my_files' could look like this:
</p><table border="0" summary="Simple list" class="simplelist"><tr><td>-i gpx</td></tr><tr><td>-f saxony_in_summer_2004.gpx -f austria_2005.gpx</td></tr><tr><td>-i gdb</td></tr><tr><td>-f croatia_2006.gdb</td></tr><tr><td>-x nuketypes,waypoints,routes</td></tr><tr><td>-x track,pack,split,title="LOG # %Y%m%d"</td></tr></table></div><div class="navfooter"><hr /><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="tracking.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="Usage.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="all_options.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Realtime tracking </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> List of Options</td></tr></table></div>
