This document describes the Tcl commands defined in the gpsmanshp package that provides the means for creating and reading files in the ESRI Shapefile format for keeping 2 or 3 dimensional points and polylines.

gpsmanshp was developed for use in GPSMan , a manager of GPS receiver data. It is written in C and is based on shapelib made available by Frank Warmerdam (warmerda_at_home.com).

Along with this package, gpstr2shp.c was also developed. It translates GPStrans data files into Shapefile ones.
