Tibor,
I installed your cnGoreGen [Windows 10], but it refuses to run, complaining about a series of missing dll's: zlib1, pcre, intl-8, iconv-2. I was going to discover its capabilities by experimenting, but since I'm stuck here, I'll just ask...
Can I create an inside-out globe, on which the constellations resemble their apperance in the sky? Also, does it allow selection of different numbers of gores: 12 with 30° widths, 24 with 15° widths?
I was also going to ask if there was any possibility of including polar "caps", but I just found those in your pdf examples. :)
