Before is get to deep into things, is it realistic to get the name of the object being tracked via: indi_getprop

If it is possible, can someone post the command to get me started.

If not possible, does it mean creating and indi client using cpp to do so?

Thank you

I do not think that is stored in a prop. The only prop that I can see would have that (thinking this through) would be the filename that Ekos sets for the camera driver, if you choose for it to do so when you define the sequence.

A recent property was added, but it depends on the client to populate it. It's FITS_HEADER.FITS_OBJECT, so for CCD Simulator, it would be:
indi_getprop "CCD Simulator.FITS_HEADER.FITS_OBJECT"

Excellent. I will check this out.

My hope is that by using this: mike.verdone.ca/twitter/

And the KDE notification on RPI3

Tweets can be sent out for different events with the name of the objects being imaged.
