SoundStepper is a "100% software" telescope controller, for Windows, using audio hardware to control step motors at real time. All it requires to operate are external step motor drives, which can be a commercial "pulse/direction" drive or analog current amplifiers. Documentation: http://soundstepper.sourceforge.net/

ASCOM driver for the LittleFoot Elegance Photo (LFEP) telescope controller. Firmware 6.x is fully supported - firmware 5.x is partially supported (all LFEP features are available but configuration is only possible by handbox). Contains drivers for telescope, focuser, camera, filter wheel, roof controller and dew heater which shares a single connection to the controller.

...It can directly drive Skywatcher and similar mounts through a serial port after a conversion of signal levels (see EQDIRECT interface), or any other mount hardware which uses this protocol. This project is similar in its goal to the EQMOD/EQASCOM project, but for the Linux/INDI world. Thus the name of the INDI device is "EQMod Mount", and the driver executable is indi_eqmod_telescope. ***** Refer to the libindi library ***** The driver is now included in the libindi library as a 3rd party driver (indi-eqmod).

This project gathers small tools aimed at controlling astronomical mounts driven with the INDI protocol. As of now, there is an "handcontroller" GUI application (Pad), which includes the use of a joypad device, and a helper for polar aligning an equatorial mount (Polar Align). Besides a small catalog browser/reader (Catalogs), and a more specific Align Viewer GUI application aimed at displaying current alignment data for the EQMod INDI driver.
