  Description     : monitor program for Motorola Oncore GPS receiver used with NTP

DarkGPS reads the shared memory file created by the NTO Oncore driver
and displays useful information such as latitude, longitude, height,
TRAIM status, and satellite tracking status.

DarkGPS includes a daemon that makes the Oncore data available over
TCP/IP and a client which does the display. Even if you don't have your
own Oncore, you can still watch the status display from darksmile.net's
GPS.

With DarkGPS, you can amaze your "friends" with your geekiness by saying
things like "PRN 8 is rising in the northwest" Or, worse, by pointing to
it.
