Default Charting mount errors

Hi Mike,

I ran into this little freeware program (RxPec) that uses a Registax
Project file and charts, using Excel, alignment/periodic error
information. The "blurb" from the author's site:

"RxPec is a small utility program that simply reads alignment
information from a selected Registax project file and writes a "comma
separated values" (.csv) file that MS Excel can use.This makes it very
easy to produce a graph showing the periodic error and declination drift
in a particular recording processed by Registax."

Looks very interesting ...

It is interesting, I wrote it :-)

These days you can also produce such graphs using the K3CCDTools2 drift
explorer without having to save to AVI first. But RxPec works fine still :-)
