... AstroCC is a coordinate conversion utility for astronomy. It accepts an object designation or the coordinates of an object and calculates coordinates in alternative systems, and at different dates, times, and locations. It also provides lunar and bright planet coordinates to aid in planning observations. ... BJD values may also be retrieved from http://astroutils.astronomy.ohio-state.edu/time/utc2bjd.html which is based on Eastman et al. ... Coordinate data are obtained from SIMBAD. ...

... The parameter pgdev allows the user to specify a pgplot device, but, in contrast to the pgplot standard, the file name should not be included, but instead supplied via the parameter plotfile . ... To write a colour postscript file called op.ps: pgdev=/cps plotfile=op.ps . However note that at present, if a colour postscript device ( pgdev = `/cps'), a fits file ( pgdev = `/fits') or a ppm file ( pgdev = `/ppm') are selected, the task in fact bypasses pgplot and writes the postscript file directly. ...
