Today I released the new version of Comet for Windows, version 1.5.0.

  http://www.aerith.net/project/comet.html

Now Comet for Windows supports the TASS Mark IV Patches Catalog.

The catalog is very useful for visual observations of comets fainter
than 12 mag. We can report the magnitude with a key "TA" in the ICQ
format.

Please see the tutorial pages from the web site for the usages in
details.

Thank you very much for the useful catalog!

Best regards,
