Hi Chris,
We may have a way of getting around this limitation. The new
"Tycho Double Star Catalog(ue)" (TDSC) does show both components,
properly positioned, as well as a whole slew of previously unresolved
very close doubles.

In addition to this, there's a new version of WDS out that (at long
last!) provides arcsecond-level positions, instead of arcminute level
ones. With these two tools, handling of double stars in future versions
of Guide (and SkyMap) ought to be much better. Of course, all these
wonders came out a bit late for Guide 8... and in cases such as Eps2
Lyr, I'd really prefer to show correct orbital motion anyway.
