[Kstars-devel] Extending Hendry Draper numbers in Kstars

[M.S. Adityan]

Another way to tackle this issue would be to use the HD numbers listed in
clines.dat. Since KStars draws constellation boundary lines using these HD
numbers only, I will not run into a problem. But again, it would be a
lengthy process of figuring out the coordinates of the stars in the
corresponding image.
