Before I started the GeoPS project, I did some searching and found a
project: kflog: http://www.kflog.de/

That project is an Open Source project that does contain Volkslogger
support. I found that the basic Volkslogger functions worked for me, but
this Volkslogger code is not very good. I have had some serious trouble
getting it to work on a Mac, but now it does.

I'd suggest you take a look at that kflog project. It looks like a very
solid application that has features that seem very useful, like Maps,
Terrain Elevation and Airspace support.
I even tried to port this app to Mac, because Mac OS X is a Unix too,
but I did not succeed (yet).


Thanks for this answer. I was aware of kflog, but never used it since
up to a recent date I didn't have a sufficient recent computer for
running KDE. Anyway my ambition is much lower than a software like
kflog. I want just to have a program downloading the logger to an
IGC file, without graphical interface (much to complicate to program
for me) and possibly verifying that the turnpoints were correctly
rounded and computing the average speed per leg and general if
there is a declared task. This is what I did for my Garmin 12 using
the current route as a declared task.

What I meant to say is that that project contains code that talks to the
Volkslogger.
