GPSd is an internet daemon for connecting to and sharing a single GPS device among multiple client programs running on one or many computers. It is also an extremely easy way to add GPS functionality to your own software.

gpsdX is a Universal Binary build of GPSd, complete with an installer and a GUI configuration utility that makes it easy to set up the daemon on your system.
gpsdX works with any program that supports GPSd (such as gpsdrive, KisMac or gps2geX)

if your GPS software doesn't support it yet, contact the developer and tell them about GPSd!
