[aklug] Non-proprietary KMZ (KML) Viewer?

[Christopher Howard]

Sorry to resurrect this old thread, but for posterity, I wanted to
mention I think I found what I was looking for in GpsPrune, which was
able to open up and display my KMZ file fine, and overlay it onto a map
(View -> Show Map). For some reason I could get my KMZ information to
display in Marble... apparently Marble doesn't support all the KML
overlay features or something like that.
