The main reason I have added the extra sdk commands, is so you can now make your own menu's using RR.. for example
Create a button on the external_gps.skin so it does the following
B,0,560,75,42,"MENU;GPSMENU1.SKIN" (This loads the skin called GPSMENU1.SKIN)
now in this skin you can have as many buttons as you like, make it look how you like, and even have it call other menus like GPSMENU2.SKIN ... this skin floats ontop of freedrive (like the exit menu) you can even set its transparent if you wish (V,80)
Now in this GPSMENU1.SKIN you will need to add buttons that look like this..
B,045,045,160,060,"SENDMSG;FreeDrive;address||EXIT ",""
B,045,120,160,060,"SENDMSG;FreeDrive;favorites||EX IT",""
B,045,195,160,060,"SENDMSG;FreeDrive;view2d||EXIT" ,""
B,285,045,160,060,"SENDMSG;FreeDrive;home||EXIT"," "
B,285,120,160,060,"SENDMSG;FreeDrive;history||EXIT ",""
B,285,195,160,060,"SENDMSG;FreeDrive;view3d||EXIT" ,""
This sends sdk commands to FreeDrive, please look at the readme for more info on the commands used.. You will need to add the EXIT like above to close the menu also. If you want to add a second menu then you would do it in the same way as calling the first, but you would stick the EXIT at the end to close the 1st and open the second
I hope you understand :-)

O yeah.. nearly forgot to point out.. say your running a RR skin of 800 x 600.. then menugps skin doesnt have to be this, it can be 400 x 400.. and RR centers it on the screen, like the menu below :-) I will be adding another sdk.ini setting command, this will when set, disable FD's menu and send a command out instead.. this is so by tapping on FD's map screen you will be able to get a RR menu to open.
