This is great.  My current Satellite Predict script runs it's own Telnet
server, and Xastir just connects to it and sees it as a Internet
Server.  This will simplify things quite a bit, because the telnet
server has to be restarted everytime the connection is dropped.

Look for the beta of Predict2Xastir soon.
