User editable files

There are 3 files the user may wish to modify to suit their preferences. They are:
nvj.loc Location file
nvj.ds Deep sky object file
nvj.stn Star name file

Use the Write user files window to create these files. Night Vision will look for each file when it starts up. If found, the file's data will be used in place of the program's internal data.

Directions on how to modify are at the top of each file. Use a standard text editor. Do not use a word processor unless it can save to a standard ASCII file. Also do not save with tabs.

It is important to follow the directions at the top of each file. Any errors found by the program will be listed in the Messages window.
