Phil's help

I asked Phil (as a supervisor-in-training) to proof-read my Quick Reference Card (in development) for TheSky6.

I'm developing this for several reasons. It is for me, as I learn TheSky6. With Stellarium actively in my brain and my continuing occasional use of Cartes du Ciel, I'm having a hard time keeping track of procedures and keyboard shortcuts. The QRC will hopefully prove useful to other supervisors who, like me, infrequently use the software controlling the GBO telescope. And I hope it will also be useful to users more comfortable with the application but who want to use it faster and more effectively.

Phil thought it was good.

He gave me a few suggestions, such as how to show Field of View Indicators. I will incorporate some of his ideas.
