Pav Lucistnik 3a9fc0d7af This program computes ephemerides of Sun, Moon, planets, comets, and stars
using rigorous reduction methods from the _Astronomical Almanac_ and related
sources. Includes PLAN404 series for positions of the planets, and a long-term
extension of modern Lunar theory for the Moon's position. Reads ASCII file
catalogues of stars and orbital elements. Displays all adjustments as it finds
local azimuth and elevation, rise and set times, etc.

---------------------------------------------------
NOTE: The program has been set up to read its
initialization from a dotfile in a user's home,
${HOME}/.aa.ini
or from the system's ini file
%%PREFIX%%/etc/aa.ini
where the latter has the lower priority. The port
only installs "%%PREFIX%%/etc/aa.ini.default"
which shows a sample initialization. To configure
aa properly, this sample file should be copied to
one of the above ini files which then needs to be
edited to match the local requirements.
