Hello all,
I've posted an update to the "development" flavors (32-bit and
64-bit Windows, Linux and OS/X in source code form) at
http://www.projectpluto.com/pluto/devel/find_orb.htm
This fixes the problems Peter Birtwhistle mentioned with the
clipboard functions. (You couldn't put astrometry into the clipboard
and then look at that astrometry in Find_Orb, nor could you copy
the orbital elements or the object information to the clipboard.
All fixed now.)
Aside from that, the only real change is that you can click on
the orbital elements and toggle to get "alternative" data, such as
the MOIDs to the eight planets (*), Tisserand parameters, encounter
speeds, and state vectors. These data were already written out to
the 'elements.txt' file, but were treated as comments.

(*) This does not represent a stance on the is-Pluto-a-planet issue.
It's just that I couldn't imagine a situation where the Pluto MOID
was of much interest.
