Description mi+kde 2004-04-15 04:36:40 UTC

Version:           1.0 (using KDE 3.2.1, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.3 [FreeBSD] 20031106
OS:          FreeBSD (i386) release 5.2-CURRENT

I "bought" a star name through StarRegistry.com and they sent us the coordinates of the star, we named. I have the RA (1h35m20.19s) and the "dec" 26o19'24.25".

I'd like to be able to enter these numbers (without converting them to doubles, which I don't know, how to do anyway) and place some sort of a dot/flag and the label, so I can see it whenever the general area is shown.

Thanks!
