Python Library for Talking to Telescopes (and their components)
First order of business: Write interface for Meade LX200GPS
Layout:
core:
Core componenets, serial interface and hardware interaction happen here
mantel:
Abstracted core methods and classes that are usable to an end-user
astro:
Various astronomical tools
virtual:
Virutal hardware, things like auto-star II controller or custom telescope controllers
UI:
User interface scripts/front end
Feel free to update this README with suggested changes to layout below:
