This is calculator of a true azimuth in which you must launch to have a desired inclination after reaching orbit (eg. ISS' inclination). The equations used take planets' rotation into account. Because heading changes as a function of latitude, IF you swerve it's impossible to know which azimuth you should have using this program. It's for launches only.
Program has been written in C++ win32 so it doesn't need any additional installs and was created with compatibility with a new multiplatform simulator Kosmos in mind (hail!).Target has been achieved - program should work under all *NIXes with the help of Wine.
