Hi Larry,
The "Common Star Names.TDF" has been posted by Bill in Guide users list, on 2003 08 18:

" As noted by Albert van Duin and Owen Brazell, the common name
lists have moved around a little. In the process, I added a lot of new names, but left out some old ones (mostly those of non-NGC or IC objects). I've put a few back in. Download

and you should see the Dwingeloos and a few others (haven't
gotten them all in there yet.)

-- Bill"


The .TDF begins like that:

"; this is a "self-contained" TDF, with the data in the same file as
; the TDF definition.

file common2.tdf

title Common Star Names

(...)

~r 1 20 \n Created 4 Aug 2003 in response to an inquiry on the Guide user list.\n

Bertrand, you said Common star names are displayed through a .TDF. Click on
"Toggle user datasets", then on "Common star names", but I don't seem to
have this, only the star name option in Star Display. Help?
