GSAK Software and Stripper Programs

GSAK is the all in one Geocaching and waypoint management tool. Major features include: Multiple databases, sending/receiving waypoints to GPSr, Google maps, conversion to many mapping formats, PDA output (including CacheMate support), HTML output, extensive searching, macro support, backup and restore, distance/direction from other waypoints (including caches, locations, post codes) and much more. GSAK only runs on Windows operating systems (98, ME, NT, 2000, XP, Vista)

GSAK is FREE to download and use, but after 21 days of unrestricted use you get a nag screen. You can keep using GSAK after the 21 days, but if you want to remove the nag screen you will need to register the program.

You can download version 7.6.1 (9.570mb) by clicking here.

If you use GSAK, then create a text file called html-stripper.gsk with the following code in it and save it in your GSAK\Macros directory. Run the macro on any or all of your caches you want to dump into your gps.

$ThisRecord = 0
GOTO Position=top
WHILE NOT($_Eol)
$ThisRecord = $ThisRecord + 1
$status = "Cache: " + "$ThisRecord" + " of " + "$_Count"
ShowStatus msg="$status"
$d_LongDescription=RegExReplace("(s?)</?[a-z][a-z0-9]*[^<>]*>",$d_LongDescription,"")
$d_ShortDescription=RegExReplace("(s?)</?[a-z][a-z0-9]*[^<>]*>",$d_ShortDescription,"")
GOTO Position=Next
ENDWHILE
GOTO Position=top
