such as telescopes and focusers via the <acronym>INDI</acronym> protocol.
<command>lx200gps</command> is a device driver for supporting particular
types of external hardware.</para>

&kstars;.</para>

driver.</para>
<para>Much more detailed information can be found in the &kstars; handbook
as described below.</para>
<para>&kstars; is a graphical desktop planetarium for &kde; and forms part
