*
* Things TODO:
* - clean up code!
* - more detailed documentation.
* - reduce size of pixmap! Dont need it in one pixmap.
* Aslo, does the hi-color pixmap really need all those colors?
* - add rotation of moon so user sees it as they would in reality?
* - eclipses. The calcs are quite acurate so this should be easily doable.
* (Note the Sun position calcs in CalcEphem are low precision -- high is not
* as costly as the Moon calcs.) Sun posiiton is calculated but not used yet...
* - Next new moons, next full moons, next quarters, etc...
* - Moon names. I.e. Harvest, Blue, etc...
*
* Changes:
* Version 1.28 - released September 20, 2011.
* Debian patches added to the upstream version. These patches are included:
* 01_all_previous_diff.diff, 02_update_time.diff, 03_add_southern_hemisphere_support.diff
* 03_add_southern_hemisphere_support.diff and 04_fix_hyphen_used_as_minus_sign.diff
* BUGS file updated to report to wmaker-dev@lists.windowmaker.info
* Source is now at http://repo.or.cz/w/dockapps.git
* Updated by Rodolfo García Peñas (kix) <kix@kix.es>
*
* Version 1.27 - released June 7, 1999.
* fixed a minor bug in computation of azimuth (A in Horizon Coords). Thanks to
* Dan Moraru for spotting this one. (There were two SinGlat factors instead of one).
*
* Version 1.26 - released April 22, 1999 (?).
* Version 1.25 - released March 22, 1999.
* Now auto-detects 8-bit display and forces the LowColor pixmap to
* be used. The -low option still works if you need to conserve colors
* even on high-color displays.
*
* Added 3 command line options + code to change colors of the data
* entries:
*
* -bc <Color> to change background color.
* -lc <Color> to change color of labels and headers.
* -dc <Color> to change color of data values.
*
* Version 1.24 - released February 9, 1999.
* Added low color support via the -low command line option.
*
* Version 1.23 - released February 4, 1999.
* cosmetic for AfterStep users. removed spurious black line at RHS edge an mask.
*
* Version 1.22 - released January 8, 1999.
*
* + Changed PI2 to TwoPi in Moon.c -- Linux Pyth. had probs because
* PI2 was defined in <math.h>.
*
* Version 1.21 - released January 7, 1999.
*
* + minor bug fixes in Makefile and manpage.
*
* Version 1.2 - released January 3, 1999.
* Added:
*
* + Local Time/ Universal Time display.
* + Visible: Yes/No to indicate if Moon is up or not.
* + Frac (percent through orbit -- this is NOT a simple
* conversion of AGE....).
* + Horizon Coords. Altitude is measured up from horizon to
* Moon in degrees. Azimuth is in degrees from due south.
*
* Also shuffled things around a bit...
*
*
*
* Version 1.1 - released December 24, 1998.
* Fixed bug in AGE calculation. It now should be highly accurate.
* Note that AGE is not the same as Phase*29.530589 ...
* I have checked with the Astronomical Almanac and it agrees very
* well....
*
*
* Version 1.0 - released December 16, 1998.
