From: Daigo Tomono Date: 2004-12-10T08:16:15+09:00 Subject: [ANN] ruby-sphere-0.1.0 for planning astronomical observations Dear All, I would like to announce a first release of ruby-sphere: a set of libraries and user interfaces to calculate apparent positions of stars with a moderate accuracy. Please have a look at the project homepage http://ruby-sphere.sourceforge.net/ and download the package from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ruby-sphere/ruby-sphere-0.1.0.tar.gz?download The goal of ruby-sphere is to to provide an easy way to plan astronomical observations. The release 0.1.0 contains a set of libraries to plot visibility maps and a sample script to be edited for your own application. Ruby version 1.8.x is recommended. Gnuplot is required to plot visibility maps. Best regards, Daigo __________________________________ STOP HIV/AIDS. Yahoo! JAPAN Redribbon Campaign http://pr.mail.yahoo.co.jp/redribbon/
