IIRC, sprintf was a problem for some. Is that still the case? I've compiled
under Cygwin,
Borland C++, and I think I've also compiled code that uses sprintf under IRIX.

I have posted this issue twice before. This is with plib, SimGear, fg,
and data all from recent cvs. I have fgfs from cvs up-to-date on my
desktop and notebook, both running Linux FC3 and both have this bug
after updates from about 10 days ago.
I don't know if there are others that use fgfs

AFAICT there hasn't been any significant changes to Instrumentation/gps.*xx or
Airport
Get Nearest Airport (From Menu Equipment GPS) seems not working.
It was working with olders CVS.
Is it any new modifications which deleted that function ?
Thanks

Heh, s/nothing/notion/
Most of my typos are clear from context, but that one reads like

This is just the equal area thing, right? (angular orbital velocity
goes as the inverse of the distance to the focus) I kinda-sorta
remember doing a parameterization of that in college way back

Position is arbitrary. I think it corresponds to the order of which
the nodes were added to the parent. The only use I can think of for
this method is enumerating over all

Hi Josh,
These entries in your example...
instrumentation/nav[0]/gs-needle-deflection
1
...assume that your gs-needle-deflection property is in degrees. Maybe that
property needs to be renamed with a -deg suffix.
You used min and max instead of min-deg and max-deg when configuring a
rotation
In props.cxx I find this code:
/**
* Get a child node by position (*NOT* index).
*/
SGPropertyNode * getChild (int position);
Can anyone differentiate for me the concept of "position" as contrasted to
"index" in this
situation?

Erik:
The position of any astronomical object relative to a viewer standing on
the planet's surface is usually given as "altitude" and "azimuth" - with
the true horizon and true "North" used as the references. Normally, an
object is said to "set" when it crosses the visible
