Changes for version 0.069_01 - 2012-12-02

  • Re-instate the use of hour, minute, and second spacifications in -start_epoch and -end_epoch for the Space Track REST interface. Go back to using OID ranges in the retrieve() method if the Space Track REST interface is being used. Document environment varoables SPACETRACK_REST_RANGE_OPERATOR and SPACETRACK_REST_FRACTIONAL_DATE, so users can get themselves going again if there are further glitches in the related functionality. Add method celestrak_supplemental() to retrieve the supplemental TLEs not derived from SpaceTrack. Correct bug in celestrak() method, in which the Space Track REST options were being parsed when they should not have been. This was really two bugs: use of get() rather than getv() to check the Space Track version, and failure to check the 'direct' attribute.
