Thanks very much red, you are extremley helpful. I am totaly interested in
such a project like SETI@home. It is what I have been looking for all along,
ever since I got SETI@home all I have been doing is reading up on it, I have
totally dedacated my surf time to researching SETI. I still cant believe
this program is open to the public, happy days!

You were saying about the 'WU2wav program', sounds like its essesential.
Thanks, Oh and also if you do know about similar voluntary projects like
this or very useful programs like SETI@home could you email me about them,
thanks.

==============================================

SETIspy is a small-footprint bolt-on that:
logs your WUs,
shows you what you have found in each WU (until you send it in),
shows how your hardware compares to similar set-ups,
shows your user ranking,
shows a skymap of your present WU,
shows time to WU completion,
et c.
et c.
SETIspy does a lot, for little disk space; you'd need half a dozen other
bolt-ons to provide as much information to you.
V 3.08 is the latest that I have.
You can listen to a WU using the WU2wav program.
Distant Suns V.S@h) is a complete planetarium.
There are cache programs to keep you going if the S@h server is down for
upgrades.
All found on:
http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/links_addons.html
The graphical client software itself does what you want for analysis;
somebody else here might have the screen-capture utility to snapshot the
"interesting" results along the way for you.  The graphical client is a

bit

slower than the CLI (numbers only) version, though.
Read the S@h website, and they tell you about giving credit to the
finder.  We are all volunteers here, so they'd be foolish to piss anybody
off.  If you have a log file of your WUs, such as several bolt-ons can
provide (not just SETIspy), you could easily check if the "find" is in or
near any of your WUs.  If the RA, Dec, and times match, man, you own it.
Some parts of the sky *are* scanned more than once, but maybe months

apart.
