[time-nuts] GPScon running on Raspberry Pi 3b

2017-06-27 Thread Mark Sims
No, it's not a bug.  It's the way it is intended to work.  Whenever Heather 
sees a command to open/change the serial port, the currently open port (if any) 
is closed and the new one is opened.   

Heather lets you change the serial port or read a config file on the fly from 
the keyboard.   Trying to filter when to ignore or delay opening the port is a 
needless and potentially error prone complication.   The simple / robust / 
reliable thing to do is just try and open it whenever / wherever a serial port 
command is seen.  

Most people with just set up the config file for their default port and never 
use the command line option or do things like changing the port or loading a 
config file from the keyboard,  but it can be quite handy if you are playing 
with lots of devices.

It is just a plain PDF.

Downloaded just fine, Firefox with Ublock Origin on Mint 17.1.

It opened it first in FF, and just showed raw text.

"Saved" it to disk, and it opened with the default Mint document viewer
just fine.

No pop ups, or extraneous other things happening or needed.

Google Docs is a bit weird, but you can bludgeon it to do what you want
without too much difficulty.

Cheers.

Dave B.

I'm surprised by the omission of units that use Loran-C, such as those from
Stanford Research.

Currently that is not an active system in the US. If it would re-occur 
outside of test-transmissions, then I am sure it would be included.


The lack of other GNSS systems, including SBAS/NBAS such as WAAS and 
DGPS is also interesting. There is some politics in it, but it should 
not be relevant for the listing. For most parts, the list would have the 
same vendors, but more columns.


Cheers,
Magnus
