Hmm.....sounds like this deserves one of your famous "naked struts". Permission granted, but photo's not required - we'll take your honorable word that you executed the romp!

Ummmm, sorry to be ignorant but what are we looking at?

I see Registax and a couple of other windows open. What am I supposed to be seeing?

I think I am missing something.

They're two new toys for planetary imagers Ken. One is a modification of bird's ppmcentre (from DOS command line driven to windows graphic user interface) and the other is a developement by hitchhiker to split bmps into seperate rgb channels. He's taken a job that can take me more than 3 days to have an output from registax for 25 avies and cut it down to 8 hours. Damn sexy if you ask me.

oh . . . OK.

I'll take your word for it Paul.

[1ponders] (Paul) · #11 03-07-2006, 10:05 PM

Seriously Ken, these two little toys are great! I can do really really really basic command line stuff just enough to get myself in trouble, which is why I've veered away from ppmcentre. Adams modification just makes it sooooo much easier to achieve what we want to do.

ballaratdragons (Ken) · #12 03-07-2006, 10:16 PM

Sorry Paul, but it is all way beyond me.

'basic command line', 'ppmcentre'.

I don't even know what they are, so don't worry about trying to explain what the windows do

Maybe one day I will catch up with technology, but let's not make it today. My brain hurts already just thinking about it!!!

[1ponders] (Paul) · #13 03-07-2006, 10:19 PM

Don't worry Ken I know exactly how you feel.

Atleast I must be an encouragement to Newbies!!!

I've been astronomising for 21 years (nearly 22 now) and have racked up 5,393 posts in here, I have a nice collection of Scopes and stuff . . . .

and yet I still have no idea about almost everything

Makes the Newbies feel safe
