# GPX Tools
This project includes a simple portable `bash` script that which combine
multiples GPX files (in order) into one single `.gpx` file and writes this to
`stdout`.
How to use `gpx-combine`
bash gpx-combine <FILE 1> <FILE 2> [FILE N...] > combined.gpx
or do the usual and make the script executable to then call it
chmod +x gpx-combine
./combine-gpx <FILE 1> <FILE 2> [FILE N...] > combined.gpx
Finally, the script can be added to your `$PATH` so it can be called from
anywhere: add
export PATH=$PATH:<Path to gpx-combine>
to your shell initialisation file (e.g. `~/.bashrc`).
### Why another GPX tool?
This project was born out of a shortcoming of my cycling computer: to upload a
new route naviagation whilst riding you must stop the recording, synchronise the
device, and then begin recoding again. This occasionally leaves me with a ride
split into two recordings.
I enjoyed writing this short shell sciprt. It is simple, executable from the
command line and doesn't require me to upload my files to some website.
