I am trying to 'force' Charon to recognise the comet cP/Linear-Neat a.k.a. HT50 but I have been unable to get it to do anything but crash without error...
When doing astrometry and analysing the results, I am sure that I recall that Guide has a facility to plot residuals. Can't find this on the 'Extras' page -...
Charon seems to be a bit fussy about comet names at times. I have the best luck when I look at how the name is displayed in Guide and then use that name...
