This release fixes a bug preventing connection with third party software such as Sky Safari.

Also in this release, the software will automatically check for updates and alert you if there is a new version available. You can also invoke this functionality manually using the EQMac menu item Check for updates...

Finally, a couple of new commands have been added to the LX200 emulation to support some other projects needing additional features. Specifically, EQMac will now support park and unpark commands as well as allow the site latitude and longitude to be set (overriding the user preferred site). Since the LX200 standard does not appear to provide an unpark command, this has been implemented as :hU#.
