******************************************************************************
* IMPORTATNT NOTE: THIS ARCHIVE CONTAINS A FIXED VERSION OF ASTROLOG WITH
* THE ASTFIX PATCHES APPLIED! YOU DON'T NEED ASTFIX.LHA!
******************************************************************************
Astrolog version 4.40 is a powerful, customizable, and platform independent
astrology chart calculation program, used in 20+ countries on six continents.
It is 100% freeware and requires no registration fee. :) The complete source
code is available. Astrolog features: wheels, aspects, midpoints,
relationship charts, transits, progressions, some interpretations,
astro-graphy, local horizon, constellations, planet orbits, dispositors,
various influence charts, biorhythms, different zodiacs, central planets, 13
house systems, 8400 year ephemeris, asteroids, Uranians, fixed stars, Arabic
parts, script files and macros, PC screen graphics, X11 Windows graphics,
smooth animation of charts, graphic files in PostScript, Windows metafile, and
bitmap formats, and more!
******************************************************************************
* INSTALLATION
******************************************************************************
Read the "Distfile" for details about the files in this archive. Copy the
executable (astrolog.000 or astrolog.030 respectively) somewhere into your
path and rename it to "astrolog". Copy the config file "astrolog.dat" into
the same directory as where you put the executable. Now try out
astrolog -i now -X
(... and press `q' to quit)
You might also want to play around with the default graphics resolution in
the file "astrolog.dat" (line 146). I use
:Xw 554 554
Read the file HELPFILE.440!
******************************************************************************
* CHANGES SINCE ASTROLOG-4.40.LHA
******************************************************************************
o Fixed the wrong graphics.library LVO of DrawEllipse()
(Bug reported by Michal Kara,lemming@k332.feld.cvut.cz)
******************************************************************************
* CHANGES IN THE SOURCE CODE OF AST44SRC.ZIP
******************************************************************************
astrolog.h line 1167 & extern.h line 127:
#ifdef PI
#undef PI
#endif /*PI*/
astrolog.c: return type of main() changed from `void' to `int'
data.c:115: initializer element is not constant
FILE *S = stdout; /* initialization moved to main() */
general.c:652: sign = (int)floor(deg / 30.0);
^^^^^
otherwise the degree value 'd' might become negative
general.c:663: d = (int)floor(deg / 15.0);
^^^^^
otherwise the minutes value 'm' might become negative
----
astrolog.h
Added some fields to struct gi and some #includes for the AMIGA.
Changed the default input search path to "PROGDIR:"
xgeneral.c
xscreen.c
Implementation of Amiga graphic support. See #ifdef AMIGA for
the relevant parts. Some changes had to be made because of the
#else clauses which expected everything which was not X11 to be
PCG.
ellipse.s
Here we call LVO_DrawEllipse() via GfxBase. We need this because
Astrolog's ellipse routine is called DrawEllipse() as well.
This file is needed on Amiga *only*.
io.c
':' has been introduced as a legal path seperator like '/'.
Astrolog first attempts to read `astrolog.dat' from the current
directory (as usual) but then (if that fails) it looks in it's
own directory `PROGDIR:astrolog.dat'.
amiga.c
Routines to initialize and close Amiga graphics.
