Variable Star Chart CD-ROM (version 2.0)
Description:
The collection is two CDROMS with over 4,500 star charts for over 2,000 objects. It includes the the entire AAVSO collection of Variable Star Charts. This is every chart that was on the first CDROM, plus new and updated charts published since then. It includes over 135 new EB/RR Lyrae charts, 70 PEP charts, 30 constellation finder charts, and hundreds of new visual and CCD charts.
Also included is ChartCD 2.0, MS Windows software that allows you to print all the charts on a single sheet of paper on every printer. It also allows you to zoom, reverse, and search the charts by RA/DEC. It mirrors most of the capabilities of the online chart search engine.
The directory structure is a mirror of the AAVSO chart ftp site so that those not running Windows can access the files directly. An art program will then be needed to view and print the GIF charts for those who don't use ChartCD 2. Those with PostScript printers can just copy the PostScript files directly to their printer.
