BTW on the subject of astronomy, if anyone wants it:
  http://www.freebsd.org/~jhs/src/bsd/jhs/bin/public/satelite/
  satelite \- Output direction to point satelite antenna in.
	-rw-r--r--   1 jhs  staff   126 Jan  7  1996 Makefile
	-rw-r--r--   1 jhs  staff   639 Sep 15 14:45 satelite.1
	-rw-r--r--   1 jhs  staff  4654 Sep 15 23:26 satelite.c
	-rw-r--r--   1 jhs  staff  9083 Sep 19 01:40 table (not on web yet)

It's not a port, (& I don't plan to wrap such a tiny program), it's
merely code & data from a larger tree of my tools. The support base
for the larger tree is standard FreeBSD src/ make all install SUBDIR stuff.
