Hi Chris,
yes, it's very handy. Thanks for providing it! We use the same format in
the EQMOD ASCOM driver for EQ5/6 mounts. It also includes an editor like
what you provided but since it only works with EQMOD compatible mounts
it may not help the OP.
With the horizon file EQMOD can park (or just stop) itself when it hits
the horizon. Point EQMOD and CdC at the same horizon file and it's all
wonderful :)
