Reposted-by: emv@msen.com (Edward Vielmetti, MSEN)



This is a software release announcement.


          lunar (version 2.0) - a calendar conversion utility

          lunar [ -h ] [ -b ] [ -i ] [ -l ] year month day [ hour ]

     DESCRIPTION
          The lunar program performs date conversion between the Gregorian
          Solar Calendar (SC) and the Chinese Lunar Calendar (LC).  Given a
          date in either calendar, the program also outputs the correspond-
          ing "shengxiao" (animal of the year) and "ganzhi" characters.
          Output may be displayed in English or Chinese.  The date range
          currently covered is from about 1900 A.D. to 2000 A.D.

Reported bugs in version 1.0 have been fixed.
Thanks to those who have reported the problems in version 1.0.
If you run "lunar 2.0" with "-h" option in a Chinese environment, such as
cxterm, you will see the output in hanzi.

The program "lunar 2.0" is now available on the ftp site "ahkcus.org".
The pertinent file is
ahkcus.org: src/unix/lunar-2.0.tar.Z

Enjoy!

Fung F. Lee and Ricky Yeung
