> GCX provides a complete set of data-reduction functions for CCD
> photometry, with frame WCS fitting, automatic target
> identification,
> aperture photometry of target and standard stars, single-frame
> ensemble
> photometry data reduction, multi-frame color coefficient fitting,
> extinction coefficient fitting, and all-sky photometry. It also
> controls CCD cameras and telescopes, and implements automatic
> observation scripting. Cameras are controlled through a
> hardware-specific server, to which gcx connects through a TCP
> socket.
> The program can control telescopes which use the LX200 protocol,
> and
> refine pointing by matching images to the GSC catalog position of
> stars. It generates FITS files with comprehensive header
> information.
