-
- Astro.22 Pro. Astrology is a program that accurately calculates the
- position of the planets, cusps and zodiac positions to within
- approximately thirty seconds of arc. It is specifically designed for
- the discerning Astrologer who needs a comprehensive range of features
- combined with accuracy, versatility, upgradeability and ease of use -
- at an affordable price!
-
- Astro.22 Pro. Astrology should not be dismissed as just another
- astrology program. It is devised to meet the needs of all those who
- have an interest in this subject at whatever level. Even those who
- have no technical knowledge of astrology are able to produce charts
- almost immediately. Before the advent of home computers such a task
- would have required months of study and a more than average aptitude
- for mathematics. From the more involved student to the professional,
- all will enjoy the ease, speed and general design of the program which
- immediately calculates needed data. Astrologers are able to work with
- a chart from any perspective without fumbling through too many menu
- systems, prompts and windows. For example, if the necessary modules
- are present, a chart may be calculated; examined for applying
- transits; progressed to any date; cross checked against a Natal chart;
- Tertiary aspects noted etc., all within a few seconds. Aspects may be
- viewed in any of three modes: Grid format, Tabulated or Graphic. Any
- work screen may be updated in time increments or decrements, even
- progressed charts. The program is fully menu driven with hot keys and
- keyboard short-cuts to suit most users. A mouse is recommended but not
- essential.
-
- The program is not a tutorial in the subject of astrology. It is a
- specialised tool intended for serious use.
-
- Those who have no knowledge of Astrology are advised to borrow
- books from the library as supplementary reading. The hard part of
- astrology, namely calculating the chart, is done by Astro.22. The more
- experienced astrologers will immediately recognise the potential of
- Astro.22 and will derive great pleasure from its use.
-
- Several add-on modules are already available for release and details
- of these can be found in the Pull-down Menu against 'Astro.22' and
- 'Help' or directly from the disk file 'MODULES.TXT'.
-
- The advantage of the extra modules is that only those parts
- which are suitable for present personal requirements need be
- purchased. Further modules may be added as the need arises.
- Those with only a casual interest in Astrology can derive great
- pleasure from producing personalised character profiles for family and
- friends using the 'Character Analysis Module' and by evaluating
- future trends with the 'Prediction Module'. The text files are in the
- region of 300K and can be edited by the user in any word processor in
- ASCII mode. Also, there is no restriction on the amount of extra
- script that may be added to the existing text files.
-
-
- The minimum hardware requirement is a PC with 640K RAM and VGA
- graphics.
-
- To install the program onto hard drive:
- ---------------------------------------
-
- a) Use the install program provided on the disk and follow the on
- screen prompts.
-
- Type CD A: to enter the Drive A: directory.
- INSTALL to run the installation program.
-
- To run the Astro.22 program after installation type:
- CD (chosen directory)
- ASTRO22
-
- b) In the unlikely event of an installation problem use MSDOS to
- create
- a directory on your hard drive e.g., MKDIR C:\ASTRO22.
- Copy all the files from floppy to this directory -
- COPY A:*.* C:\ASTRO22.
- CD ASTRO22 to enter the directory.
- PKUNZIP -d ASTRO22.ZIP to unpack the files.
- ASTRO22 to run the program.
-
- When the program has loaded press 'F1' to activate the Menu Bar and
- use the keyboard 'Tab and Arrow Keys' to move through the options. A
- mouse is the favoured method of selection. From the 'Help' option
- select 'Instructions' for information on how to use the program. The
- option is given to direct the file to a printer.
-
- I trust that Astro_22 will be of use to those with an interest in the
- subject of Astrology and suggestions for improvement or modification
- will be gratefully received and implemented wherever possible.
