It's pretty much Linux only, Jay. The telescope control Xmtel supports lx200 (incl. Sky Commander), Magellan, Software Bisque, Galil, Sitech, Synscan, Planewave and others. I have tried various protocols. The difficulty is writing your own encoder/PC-side interface for the Arduino or Teensy, in my case. Once working you have a very professional ephemeris tracking setup. It's gonna take a while. But the camera control is very nice.
