I downloaded the demo (which is fully functional).
The demo 4 instructions file was not found.
I gave it molczan.tle and it computed for 6 minutes.
I hit "ok" and it computed for another 3 minutes.
I still don't have a satellite prediction.
Now I clicked "one observer" and it won't let me compute
less than one day's passes and it's really, really, gone away.
(It's been more than 10 minutes now.)
I thought visible passes with a 1 minute step size seemed
reasonable before I hit the "ok" button.
But all I have to run it on is a Pentium 166 with 32 megs.
