predict
I've just uploaded KB2BD's 'predict' program as a new Debian package. It's
a satellite tracking program that's ncurses based and GPL'ed.
I had to hack on it quite a bit to make a package out of it. His config and
installation process was "unique", and not easy to work with to build a
package. Fortunately, he's interested in folding my patches in, and I look
forward to working with him to improve the packagability of the program.
The most interesting aspect of this program is probably the voice synthesis
during a pass, which could be handy for doing hand pointing of antennas or
for optical spotting of satellites.
Enjoy.
