How to change Placemark name to Speed value?

Hi.

I am converting GPS tracker log to KML.
# gpsbabel -i nmea -f ./GPS_20090926_233234.log -o kml,units=m -F
PS_20090926_233234-kmh.kml


Google earths shows names of the "placemarks", but I would rather to see
the speed. I could not find a way how to see the speed in Google Earth,
so I thought that I need to change the Placemark name.

Can gpsbabel change it while processing the log file?

<Placemark>
            <name>-23181</name>
            <Snippet/>
            <description><![CDATA[
              <table>
                <tr><td>Longitude: 150.723015 </td></tr>

                <tr><td>Altitude: 274.800 meters </td></tr>
                <tr><td>Speed: 102.8 km/hour </td></tr>
                <tr><td>Heading: 105.1 </td></tr>

Not without source modifications.   We don't provide a way to rename such things.

There is one way to do it, but it's a little messy -- you can create a xcsv style that exports one field, and imports another -- this way you can export the file, then reimport it, and end up with the values moved around.

As I say, It's very messy, but it's doable.

If you would like help in setting this up, send me a sample file you want converted, and I can make up the style for you.
