Re: [guide-user] 45P in 3 different locations?

Arkansas Sky Observatories' MPC Sort:
http://arksky.org/mpcsort
which I consider to be the most useful asteroid and comet research tool available for current data uses the MPC file:
http://minorplanetcenter.net/cgi-bin/observable.cgi?e=0
for display and sorting selections of all comets and asteroids.
 
For use with the GUIDE sky program, the comets are best loaded using the MPC file:
http://www.minorplanetcenter.net/iau/Ephemerides/Comets/Soft02Cmt.txt
 
Both files are typically updated and improved daily.

Thanks Clay.  Figured it was something like that.  Used to do something similar before going over to your MPEC Sort software routine.  While we're on it, does MPEC Sort use this same data file?
