well i haven't been able to get ggdt to run in wine on linux. it probably won't run on mac either.

if you have python installed you can use CALM. it's CLI, no gui. it's fairly simple to run

i think it would be sweet as a live online app, but it seems like a lot of work converting it :?

Yes, but then you need a intel processor(and that sucks).

As far as I know there are no spreadsheets available that are even close to being as accurate as GGDT (MAYBE the original version of GGDT, but I've never seen it). The only thing I know of that might run on a Mac and is pretty accurate would be the CALM program that silverdooty mentioned. http://www.antennalaunchers.com/calm.html

But it doesn't even have half the great features of GGDT. I would just suggest putting GGDT on a flash drive and go find a friend with a PC or go find a public PC in the library or something. Just make sure you put those two files on the GGDT installation page in the folder with GGDT.

Can't you run it through an emulator like WINE (or is that for Linux?)
