a number of random ideas

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Thanks for this great program/project - I have been using it for over a
year now and love it. I have a number of suggestions for enhancement.

Easy/small:
* adding a name field to the markers so as to be able to differentiate
markers - usability - could go with a toggle name display on/off button in
the interface and/or a mouse over name display
* adding a short description field to markers (showed in the list of markers)

Bigger:
* identifying the placename of markers in the list of markers - usability
* enable sharing: export/import of markers (place/name/description) - sharing.

All the best

• Merged into: #75

Hello Hello, Thank you for using GMapCatcher.

We been looking to extend the functionality of the markers for quite a while 
but no 
sucess, see Issue 75 (Marker Details), I will merge this issue into that one.

Export/Import of markers is something that can be easily done once you know 
where to 
look, the information is stored in a text file.

In Windows the markers file is here:
%userProfile%\.googlemaps\markers
