I created my own catalog with winoccult data (see
<http://www.tungstentech.com/Articles/Astronomy/WinOccultdatabaseforCartesduCiel/tabid/54/Default.aspx>
for details). The catgen project includes a search index. One of the
stars is TYC2 1350-00083-1, the subject of an occultation tonight.
Because the catalog is called 'occu' the labels on the charts look like
'occu TYC2 1350-00083-1'. When I enter this identifier in the search box
the star is not found. I confirmed that the star is listed in the raw
text file as 'TYC2 1350-00083-1'.
What do I enter to find this star? Picking an arbitrary displayed star,
copying the name and pasting in the search box doesn't result in a found
star either. In fact the second time I tried this CdC exited quietly
(gdb said the program exited normally).
Thanks,
Sander
