I see today that Googlemaps.com have changed there format again with some nice improvements like a tool that when you get route planed you can browse your route turn by turn as well as some other nice features.
If you get the link correct please edit the post and put it back in, but links to the site you posted don't have a place on this forum - Mike Alder
Sorry!! Mike if I accidently put the wrong link, thank you for deleting it.
I believe this is the correct link.
http://houghi.org/tomtom/
This works something like Tyre.
The only thing is you go direct to Googlemaps.com and drag the route where you want it to go ( rather than putting in a bunch of waypoints) then open Houghi and create a TomTom itn. file and save it to you units itn folder.

If you were trying to link to the "Houghi script", it can be found here:

Houghi himself told us about it back in July '07, HERE |

Live traffic is now working for the UK.
No point in buying a GO940 now. |

Thanks Andy that is the link I thought I had put in. I have used it since last April but it was down for a bit this past month or so and is now working again. |

Yes, I'd noticed it seems to come and go sometimes.
I think the clever thing is that you can even add those few lines of code to your own website if you wish. |
