While you're here, how about checking out the Astronomy Book List ?

Greetings --

I've been discussing with a friend the option of writing an application for
the PalmPilot that assists with using the 216XT for auto-guiding. I'm set
up for writing application for the PalmPilot, so that part isn't an
issue. For starters, being able to get a quick view of the 216's star
field on the PalmPilot display rather than relying on the coordinate
information displayed by the LED. Then probably adding various setting
options, etc.

I was wondering what information may already exist along these lines. I
don't want to duplicate an existing package. I'll also need to use a line
analyzer to figure out the command language for the 216 if no one else has
done this yet. I searched the MAPUG archives for command language info and
came up empty handed. Is there documentation for the command language
floating around?

Thanks for the feedback.

-- Keith
