looking for software

Hi!
I am looking for astronomical software (freeware or trial) which can
help me in planing observations, that is, I want fix parameters of
telescope and parameters like time,object type, magnitudo range,
position of stand and obtain list of objects with their co-ordinates.
It would be great if this software can also generate sky map with
telescope view.
I will be grateful for Yours advice.

Do your own web search.

This page:

http://astro.nineplanets.org/astrosoftware.html

Is a list of links to more than 100 astronomy software
programs, many of which are free, and some which work
online in your browser.

Mac (18), Windows (71), Unix/Linux/Solaris/OS-X (10),
Handhelds (19), OS/2 (3), Java (5), web-based (12),
plus other programs and sources for astronomy data to
put into your program.

Hi Jakub, welcome to sci.astro

This is a common request and the most recommended freeware software is
probably Cartes de Ciel.

thx, Yours links was really helpfull, I found a lot of software in the
web, however most of them were amateur. I have to prepare
observations on two meters diemeter telescope and it was hard to count
everything on paper.
Yours sincerely,
Jakub.

You have a 2 meter telescope and want "free or trial software" to do
your work! Is that about it?

No, I am a student of astrophysics. It was my first work with so big
instrument. I needed free, fast tool to calculate co-ordinates and
prepare list of intresting, visible galaxies, because I had no time to
do that myself. Despite that, I had a lot of work with data analysis
scripts and theoretical expectations.
