Hi! I have received version 8 and it is running (almost) trouble-
free. I do especially appreciate DSS-pictures plus there is more
information extracted from the PGC.

But I have run into troubles to see supernova 1937c on the display.
Firstly I noted that input in the search-dialog (for supernovae) is
case-sensitive. When I write '1937c' Guide says the object doesn't
exist, but when I write '1937C' Guide takes me to where the object is
placed on the sky. That's good, but Guide shows no red double-ring
where 1937c is placed.

I don't know what's happening, but whatever I do in the extras menu
concerning the supernovae atlas no red double-ring appears. So do
some other user know what is going on here, so I can get an double-
ring for 1937c? (I got curious here, and found that supernovae older
than 1960 does not appear, while newer ones appear.)

While on the subject of the supernova atlas I have found that
sometimes that the letters is written in capitals and sometimes in
lower-case letters. Could perhaps the sensitivity of Guide be
lessened, so it should not matter if I type c or C?
