Syntax for Survey List file

[Sascha Schuller]

Hello,

i have read the help file but i am still struggeling with the survey list file. Can anybody give me a short example List.txt (format of DEC+RA) so that i can get the right syntax?
Thanks!

This is the survey form on the Scheduler Browser, Special forms? If so, then it is as described:

so for example

Target 1<tab>12:34 56<tab>76d 54m 32s

Note that the coordinates can be pure dccimal (xx.xxx) or some sexagesimal format (dd mm ss) with any non-numeric as a separator. RS is in hours.

I copied your line into my surveytest.txt and the following window occured. I did a second test with a : instead of the space before 56 with the same result.

Ugh. Another comma decimal issue. It is not easy to fix so I cannot give you a patch. I am quite convinced that all of my other customers are running with '.' as the delimiter on the observatory computer.

[Sascha Schuller]

Thanks, i am now running with '.' as the delimiter on the observatory computer too.

OK, sorry about this.
