+This is a port of SatTrack version 3.1, written by manfred Bester.
+SatTrack is a satellite tracking program. It provides two different
+live displays, for single or multiple satellites, and two different
+orbit prediction facilities. Cursor controls used in both live
+displays are compatible with the VT100 standard, which allows the
+program to be run basically from any terminal. An X Window color
+graphics display with the typical world map tracking chart and a
+number of important features has been added in this version. The
+orbit prediction can be run either interactively or in a batch
+mode. In the latter case all necessary parameters are specified
+on the command line.
