Using the XMap API Command Window
XMap API Command Window
XMap includes a command prompt utility (XMapi) that allows you to control the application
via the command line. The interface provides access to simple commands for performing a
variety of basic operations such as panning and zooming the map, performing quick
searches and creating routes. All operations are triggered from the command line but
control the running application.
You can create scripts and use the XMapi executable to run them within your organization.
Any commands that require further input prompt the user through the standard XMap user
interface.
To Open the Command Window
To open the command window:
From the Start menu, point to Programs>DeLorme>XMap 7>Tools, and then click

The command window opens.

To Execute a Command Using the Command Line
