GSAK -Geocaching Swiss Army Knife

I have been wondering about GSAK (Geocaching Swiss Army Knife) for quite some time, but because Spinner was doing the job I never checked it out. Well due to some cold weather I figured it was a good time to do some experimenting. This program does everything that Spinner does and more. It allows for you to customize rather than to just import static HTML pages. You can query, sort, tag and select the geocaches you wish to hunt on a given day. The tagging function allows you to keep track of the caches that you have found. There are also a bunch of advanced functions that I have not played with yet, but some of these could be useful if you are a numbers cacher as you can do things like select caches of a certain rating and also do mining from a selected distance from a given coordinate. Doing that you can select geocaches along a route you wish to drive. The program is fairly intuitive and with a little practice is easy to use. If you want the advanced functions it is the program to select.
