Alternative client for Aldi Crane GPS watches

While I'm writing about GPS Master and some of its quirks, it's worth noting that there is now an alternative, open source client that can talk to the Crane GPS watches. The crane_gps_watch software is available on github. It currently supports many of the features of the GPS Master software and compiles under both Windows and Linux (so I assume MacOS works too?)

I'm currently in the process of getting proper lap data into the TCX files in creates (although RunKeeper sadly ignores this information) and after that I'd like to get the same level of statistics out. Also on the agenda is decoding the proprietary TKL data that GPS Master uses to store workouts as I'd prefer not to lose that information.
