Magellan vector maps creation

There was a tool for creating vector maps with pymag or something like that, used it few times, but forgot to copy the data on it when I reinstalled the OS. Is somenoe still using some linux cli tool to create vector maps. If yes, could you give me some advice. I want to create them alongside garmin and osmand maps.

The command line utility I use to convert into vector maps is mkgmap see wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mkgmap

Hope this helps

Re: Magellan vector maps creation

Are you sure, that mkgmap supports Magellan, too?
Otherwise the only CLI tool I know is http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Pymagellan
AFAIK user:Sockeye has a official SDK to convert to Magellan maps but with NDA http://www.magellanboard.de/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=4565
