- Moontool V1.0
- by Eric G. Suchanek
-
-
- Moontool is a port of John Walker's moontool program for UNIX. It gives a
- variety of statistics about the moon, including phase, distance, angular,
- size and time to next full moon. A schematic of the current phase is also
- shown as a picture. This is illustrative only; the accurate phase is shown
- in the text.
-
- USE:
- Make sure you set the timezone environment variable with:
- setenv TZ "tz-string".
-
- tz-string is in the form: EST+05 (timezone name, delta time to get
- to GMT from your timezone).
-
- EST+05 - eastern standard time.
- EDT+04 - eastern daylite savings time.
-
- CST+06 - central standard time.
- CDT+05 - central daylite time.
-
- I don't think the actual "est, edt, cst, cdt" string matters, but the delta time
- offset does. Make sure that this delta time is correct.
-
- The program runs under V2.04, but should work correctly under V1.3 as well.
- (The colors, however have been optimized for the default 2.0 palette).

-
- This program is SHAREWARE. It may be distributed freely, as long as all files
- in this archive remain intact, and no undue profit is made by its distribution.

-
- Enjoy!
