SVN commit 449389 by lauri:
Fix some typos and correct some menu locations, per bug report
Note: Not changing the semi-colons (they are correct) or the mention of JNOW
(which seems to be something technical relating to telescope hardware) - it could
bear some explanation though

The longitude is measured from Greenwich, UK, to the East. However, while it is common to use negative longitudes for the Western hemisphere, INDI requires longitude values between 0 and 360 degrees. So if you have a negative longitude, simply add 360 degrees to get the value that INDI expects. For example, Calgary, Canada coordinates in KStars are longitude: -114 04 58; latitude: 51 02 58. So INDI's would need longitude = 360 - 114.069 = 245.931 degrees.</para></listitem>
