I have converted several routines from USENET to AMIGA.
I have added several time oriented routines (conversion from Julian
date, UCT, true local and sidereal. These might be useful in other
applications
If you want to know the position of the planets now just type
planet
If you want position tonight at 10:30 type (remember 24 hour clock)
planet -t 22.30
You can specify as much as you want also
planet -y 1999 -m 2 -d 28 -t 10.15
(for Feb 28 1999 at 10:15 local time)
Any option not specified is defaulted to current values
You can also specify Julian day
planet 2447945.508
(for Feb 23 1990 at 0:23 UTC)
