Subject: Re: Telescope Control Program (TCP) xephem
Oops. Looks like Clear Sky Institute, Inc. (publisher of XEphem) has
dropped its website. The RPMs are available at
<http://loke.as.arizona.edu/~ckulesa/xephem/> and the add-on for the
'scope I'm buying is at
<http://www.eso.org/projects/caos/telescope/telescope.html>. I'm not sure
I want vaporware!
