GGPS reads NMEA GPGSV (Gps Satellite in View) sentences and displays a
map of the satellite positions and a table of the positions and
signal-to-noise ratios.
Added NMEA $GPGSA (Satellite Aquisition) and mark the displayed satellites
accordingly.

GGPS can either read from /dev/ttyS0 (if no argument is given), or from
a specified file (normally a serial port).  Typically it might be invoked
as:
	ggps -d /dev/ttyUSB0

Note that GGPS sets speed to 4800 baud. To change the speed use

	gpss -b 9600 -d /dev/ttyUSB0

To run make you need install package gtk+-2.0
sudo apt-get install gtk+-2.0
