NexControl is a simple Perl program that controls
a Celestron NexStar series telescope. It should
work on any other platform that supports Perl and
/dev serial ports. As of 2005, development on this
project has stopped.

This version added the ability to report back in
human readable form, corrected the math, and
added some help. It is now possible to get the
RA/Dec and Alt-Az locations from the scope, and
check status and alignment. Coordinates to
direct the telescope to can be specified in hex.
