A new beta version of my program to chart tracks computed by IridFlar 1.4
is available as http://www.algonet.se/~b_gimle/programs/ibmpc/irid_map.zip.
Some enhancements suggested by Randy John, and saving/restoring some values
in a .cfg (.ini type) file, are introduced.
The .cfg file should be named on the irid_map.exe call.
Default name is skymap.cfg - no default directory.
The file can be shared with SkyMap - irid_map uses Lat=, Long=, MapDate=
from the [SkyMap] section (more to come).
The few fields presently shared with IridFlar is in [IridFlar] (more to come),
and those that are unique to Irid_Map are in [IridMap] (most of them done).
[IridFlar]
IridOut=z:\skysat\tyre12*.txt
[IridMap]
SkyMap_cty=Z:\SKYMAP\*.cty
SkyMap_pnt=H:\QUICKSKY\*.pnt
MaxLat=60
MaxLong=19
MinLat=59
MinLong=17
CityNameLength=-11
IridProg=z:\skysat\iridflar.exe
IridTLE=iridium.tle
File names with * or ? will not be replaced with names without them.
The file is created/updated on program normal exit.
The readme.txt file is updated, but does not contain the above, or
any change history.
