Sorry, but I do not see any usage for that that would justify the costs of development. Like with all other special wishes - unless there is a broad usecase you have to implement it yourself in your own fork.
I'm just saying if the program could be made able to be controlled totally without needing finger input, one could use it for
a CLI API,,
the possibilities are endless.
Some sort of "live tracking system" like discussed in #337 may come some day, but what you describe is rather a CLI tool which is simply out of scope of GPXSee. Sure, someone could design that on the basis of GPXSee, but the purpose of GPXSee is to be a simple viewer, not a complicated GIS tool (many of which already exist).
Yes, that's all I want to use it as, a quick read-only viewer. It's at the bottom of a makefile as the last step after I produce a kml. In emacs.
I'm thinking of where I would never have to even touch a mouse, or edit a configuration file. I would have everything (settings) I need right there changeable on the command line.
That way it would be super portable, just install and use.
ideas for a workarounds:
Perhaps allow controlling initial zoom, location, etc. from the command line, like https://man.archlinux.org/man/viking.1.en
