Hello,

Quote: "I didn't think that the map file that I downloaded from Navicore had to be unzipped."

First, I apologize for not having done some more research about extracting tar or gz files. I'm new to linux. I couldn't understand how a file that was 681MB still needed to be unzipped.

I was also confused as to where the extracted files went to. I found my map "mapdata_USA West" in a folder named Navicore on my PC after I did the extraction.

Now a new question.

In any of the mapdata folders there are files that have the extension .qt which is for Quick Time Movie. I tried to open these files even on my PC but get error messages. Do these files do anything and can they be deleted to free up space?

Thank you.
