Description-en: 3-dimensional perspective star map viewer
StarPlot is a GTK+ based program that can be used interactively to view
three-dimensional perspective charts of stars. Charts can be re-centered,
rotated, or zoomed in or out with a mouse click (this can also, of course,
be done via dialog boxes for more precision). Stars may be viewed (or
ignored) by spectral class and absolute magnitude.
.
StarPlot is packaged with starconvert, a utility that converts
line-oriented stellar data records to StarPlot format. Most star data
files available on the Internet can be converted this way if a short file
describing the original file format is provided to starconvert.
