    What do you mean by "free software creators"?

    PBasic is pretty simple and programs are normally pretty small. What do you want to do with your program?

    Here's a link to a telescope mount and controller that you could get some ideas from: instruct1.cit.cornell.edu/courses/ee476/FinalProjects/s2007/iq23_tg67/iq23_tg67/index.html. It uses a different microcontroller, but you could write a new program for a Stamp based on the same kind of ideas. This was found with a simple web search for "telescope controller". You might look for other similar phrases to get other ideas.
