I would also like to add that although the Telrad is a commercial product, it helps a lot of backyard astronomers who don't have motorized mounts. At my local star party/meetup, more people use Telrads than motorized mounts, by good margin. There are other one-power aiming devices, and I hope that whatever system that the Telrad circles once used, can also be adapted to theirs, in fairness.

Thank you,
Brenda

From all of us non-motorized telescope mount people, thank you : )

I have created an alternative GUI for the Oculars plug-in that allows toggling the Telrad sight with a button (look in the upper-right corner of the screen).

I have uploaded a test build to Launchpad (the same site Stellarium's bug tracker is on):

Look for stellarium-bzr5000+OI1-win32.exe
