NAME

       gsat - Graphical Predict client

SYNOPSIS

        gsat [ -u ] [ -l ] [ -g ] [ -h ] [ -s predictservername ]

DESCRIPTION

       The  gsat  program  is  a  graphical client for the ’predict’ satellite
       tracking program running in server mode, built using gtk.

       Visualization of satellite coverage and orbital ground tracks  are  one
       feature of this application, but it also allows for display and control
       of Doppler corrected frequencies of a radio and antenna  rotor  control
       via predict(1).

       Since  this  program  can  be  run on a different machine than predict,
       there is no dependency specified... but you need access to  a  copy  of
       ’predict’  installed  somewhere  on the network for this programs to be
       useful!
