-Wshadow objected to a macro using a 'temp' variable, because there was a 'temp' variable elsewhere

I got a 'possibly uninitialized variable' warning for the nominal_r and nominal_rv variables in debug builds. In non-debug builds, the optimizer recognizes that those variables will inevitably be…

Statistical ranging variant orbits are now stored in an sr_orbit_t type, instead of a cryptic array of seven doubles. No effect on the output (yet), but it makes the code more readable and will …

Residual legend always showed 'sigmas', even if that column was actually being used to show designations or whatever happened to be in columns 57-65 of the original MPC report. Now labels said co…

Don't re-download 'ObsCodes.htm' unless the desired obscode is a letter-digit-digit one. (Saves minor wear and tear on MPC servers.) Also, if 'cospar.txt' isn't found, abort; don't just keep g…

In rare cases, reading in a partial line of astrometry led to mangled data. Better to read said partial line and then ignore it.

Gaussian noise for Monte Carlo is expressed in _sigmas_, not _arcseconds_, and have been for about twelve years. The variable names used confused that point. (With proper handling, 'noise_in_s…

If a coordinate for a spacecraft observation has a misplaced or missing sign, we try just doing an atof() on it. It's quite likely the correct value, but simply doesn't follow MPC's rather stric…

Correction to commit 7941343db0bbdaa00a1ba9b18 : if we jump out of initial orbit determination because SR succeeded, we should sort radar (and blacklisted) observations back into their proper order

Simplified code in computing the force model. It had some old logic in there that's been obsolete for years, and therefore seemed entirely pointless (because at present, it is).

Buffer overflow fix. Motions between -10000 and -999999, when formatted with %7.0, would be (including null terminator) nine or ten bytes, causing snprintf_err() to bomb on an assertion.

In computing orbit constraints, should work with 1/a, not directly with a. The latter is singular for a parabolic orbit and has a sign reversal as you go from e=1-epsilon to e=1+epsilon.

If you specify that an RA or dec has an uncertainty of 999999 arcseconds, it is considered a 'dec only' or 'RA only' observation, of the sort commonly made in the 19th century or earlier. The 'u…
