Walkway Over The Hudson for Stellarium
======================================
Version 7   (4 October, 2015)


== Description ==

The photos for this landscape were taken from the center of the
Walkway Over The Hudson, an historic railroad bridge which crosses the
Hudson river from Poughkeepsie, NY to Highland, NY, which has been
repurposed into a pedestrian walkway (and linear state park).  
See http://walkway.org  for further information about the walkway.


== Files ==

This file (readme.txt) should have come in a zip file with some others.
Here is a listing of all the files which should be in the zip file:

  walkway/readme.txt
  walkway/landscape.ini
  walkway/Walkway-Summer.png


== Installation & Use ==

You can easily install this landscape for Stellarium without even
having to open the ZIP archive.  Once you have started Stellarium:

1. Open the Sky and Viewing Options menu

2. Select the Landscapes tab

3. Under “Options” check the box marked “Use associated planet and position”
   if it’s not already checked.  This is generally a good thing to do with
   stellarium landscapes, as it adjusts the sky view to match the location 
   of the landscape.

4. Press the button at the bottom for "Add/remove landscapes..."

5. Press the button for "Install a new landscape from a ZIP archive..."

   (Note: If you have a previous version of the landscape installed 
	then you will need to remove that first before installing the 
	newer version.)

6. Find and select the ZIP file and press "open"

You can make this your default landscape by checking the appropriate box 
on the Landscapes tab of the Sky and Viewing Options menu.  Or not.


If you have problems installing the landscape this way you can also
try opening the zip file and moving the folder to wherever your
version of Stellarium keeps landscapes.  But if you need to do that
then you probably have an older version of Stellarium and should
consider upgrading.
