This is the method I'm using since I can use it under both Windows and Linux. The major limitation for me is determining the correct amount to adjust the mount given the error reported. I foresee a time in the future where these mounts will have electronic control over Alt/Az and will do the adjustment for you, just as we have routines for electronic focusing, etc.
