✨ NAME ✨

swetest β€” the Swiss Ephemeris test application, bestie πŸ’« (it's from section 1 of the manual, iykyk)


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

swetest [PARAMS...]

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

Okay so listen, swetest computes a complete set of geocentric planetary positions for a given date, or honestly for a whole sequence of dates if that's the vibe you're on. 🌸

Your input can be either:

  • a date, or
  • an absolute julian day number

Both work, pick your fighter. πŸ’…

With the proper options, swetest can be used to output a printed ephemeris and transfer the data into other programs like spreadsheets for graphical display. Like, it literally feeds your spreadsheet era. πŸ”₯

And if you run it with no options at all? It will prompt you for an input date. No cap, it just asks. 🫢

🌈 HELP AND EXAMPLES 🌈

  • -?, -h β€” display whole info. That's it, that's the whole thing. Iconic honestly. πŸ‘‘

πŸŽ€ TODO πŸŽ€

  • A complete man page. (not me leaving the man page itself as a WIP 😭 it's giving unfinished masterpiece, fr fr)

Version 2.10.03-deb1, dated 2022-09-13 β€” that's the whole tea, bestie, go compute some planets πŸ’œβœ¨
