[Therion] Degrees: minutes in centreline

[Andrew Atkinson]

Thank you for confirming it should work, that allowed me to find my 
error else where.

However it has lead to another question, it seems to accept minutes 
larger than 60, (500 adds on 8 1/3 degrees as would be expected) should 
this not generate a warning at the very least?

thanks

Andrew
