How to create GPSX Files for iPhone simulator

You can use a GPX to simulate a location. But there's a quirk…

You usually can not take a full GPX. It's taking a lighter (wrong) format.

Took me some time to find the right format for a GPX file in XCode

Thanks to Denny Mo for explaining it here. In case it disappears, the solution is to just have points, that's all.
