Sounds great, Tom! I like astronomy, too. I have a nice book called "Astronomy with your Personal Computer" that has some local routines about how the Sun and moon and planets and comets look from Earth. I have heard of using the Wand port for input, but why not use the cursor keys? If you are writing in assembler, I recommend the Cleuseau ROM. For serious work, if you have the moola, perhaps the C cross-compiler from King Computer Services may be worthwhile--I haven't tried it. If you're writing in BASIC, definitely consider using the TCOMP program (in the library here) to compile it to m/l, because your program will run a lot faster. Sorry I missed your visit on the 19th--I've been busy working at Oracle.
