Hey!
I'm wondering if it would be possible to script SGP to start once the roof of the observatory opens, this data is published on some HTTP website (and presumably somewhere more ASCOM compliant, but haven't checked). I would like to poll this data for roof open/closed events, and start/stop the sequence accordingly. Is there any simple way of scripting this? I assume I would have to talk to SGP somehow via an API, but I have never attempted this (and my windows skills are extremely poor, but I've done a lot of programming in general).

Let me know if someone has previously attempted this, or if there are any pointers whether this would be a good/bad idea!
