Short: Graphically shows the moons phase. V1.6 Author: tim@silverscope.abelgratis.co.uk Uploader: tim@silverscope.abelgratis.co.uk Version: 1.6 Type: misc/sci This is MoonDial V1.6. A small Workbench program created in Blitz Basic 2.1. I designed this program for the reason that there are no other programs on Aminet that show the moons phase, which are small enough to run on Workbench without wasting memory. MoonDial is ideal for someone who is interested in astronomy (or astrology?), but is probably not accurate enough for the serious astronomer. Even if you have no interest in astronomy, MoonDial looks great on any Workbench and takes up minimal memory. This program is designed to be placed in the WBStartup directory of Workbench, so you can see the moon's phase every time you boot up your Amiga. New since last upload (V1.5): ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * Now any sized textures may be used. * Auto update option now updates more sensibly, and includes a clock. * You can now enter in your time zone for greater accuracy outside GMT. * Texture palette will now remap to Workbench's, allowing textures with more colours to be used. * Accuracy improvement.
