Changes for version 0.013

  • Astro::Coord::ECI 0.013 No code changes, but updated version to be visible to CPAN 'r'. Astro::Coord::ECI::TLE 0.009 Updated canned Iridium status table for failure of Iridium 36 and its replacement by Iridium 97. Astro::Coord::ECI::TLE::Iridium 0.002 Fixed occasional borderline-case spurious flare prediction. bin/satpass 0.013 Added -version command option, to display preamble and exit. Wrap probe for clipboard helpers in eval{}. Among other things, this allows the script to run in taint mode. Add -choose option to list(). Allow extra arguments to status show, to do selective status display. t/moon.t Fixed cosmetic undefined value error when Scalar::Util does not implement refaddr(). t/sun.t Fixed cosmetic undefined value error when Scalar::Util does not implement refaddr().
