PLANSTAR is a computerised astronomical almanach showing position of planets,
the Moon and Jupiter's moons with highest accuracy for period 1700 to 2100 AD
both in tabular and graphical form.

Msherc.com.....Hercules graphics file
Planstar.cfg...configuration file (if missing will be created by Planstar)
Planstar.exe...main program file
Readme.1st.....this file
PS.bat.........batch file to configure and run PLANSTAR in CGA,
EGA or Hercules graphics
Psdemo.pic.....demo of star map (used by main program)
You can copy all files to the same subdirectory on hard disc or
on floppy disc. If you are running the program from the floppy disc drive,
keep the disc ( back-up disc ) in the drive while using the program
(the program writes to the disc when using HELP feature).
The PLANSTAR works best with a math coprocessor (8087 / 80287).
Install and/or run the PLANSTAR by typing "PS" and then press Return.
During the installation a file Planstar.cfg will be created.
