Astrobasic / Re: Customized ring

« on: February 07, 2021, 05:46:10 PM »

https://jcremers.com/SetupPlanetdance.exe
After installing try to edit oracle.ab and run it from the editor.
A file c:\planetdance\log.txt will be created, can you post it here?
We may need to do this a few times to find the spot where it messes up.

I don't have an explanation for that yet. First time i hear something like that. I assume if you run it directly using Application - Run, it gives no error, only from the editor?

If you like to investigate this i could make a special version that creates a log file to try and see where the error happens.

What you could try is first delete oracle.abc , then try again with oracle.ab

Can you tell me the exact steps ?

Try this.
Application - Edit - give it a name, like test.
In the editor, richt click, then choose Program - Template - Window.
Press F9, it should display a simple window.

Maybe look at drawhoroscope().
Also look in the program editor at program - templates, you can use these to start writing something from scratch, the horoscope entry is a good one to start, it get the basic data from the current horoscope into variables.
No need to rush for something to publish, just have fun.

Hi Les,
As Ed says, you could code an astrobasic script. There's Help - Astrobasic and you can study programs using Application - Edit. There are examples that draw rings, for instance Vedic - Nakshatra.ab is not too complicated.

Hope this helps.

what happens if you only enter 'wine' ?
or /usr/bin/wine?

I tried an older version, you know it didn't work, you can't expect me to try out all kind of older versions.

You forgot to put 'wine' in front, bash calls wine

Code: [Select]

wine /Users/TT/Desktop/SetupPlanetdance.exe /LOG="/Users/TT/Desktop/SetupPlanetdance.exelog.txt"

or in two steps

Code: [Select]

cd /Users/TT/Desktop
wine ./SetupPlanetdance.exe /LOG="log.txt"

I'm sorry, I thought i had published it, i did now.

I also found the error in my logic. To get rise/set times UT is needed but to determine weekday local time is needed, i forgot to do that. Now it translates to saturday / saturn correctly.

Another bug fixed Sindy.

Sindy, what do you mean 'Where did you do the changes'?
I just published an update if that's what you mean.

I'm not sure i understand what's going on. What the module does is divide the time between sunrise and sunset in 12 equal parts, then it follows the sequence moon, mars, mercury etc to give that planetary hour, the start for that sequence is dependant on the weekday. It also does this for the night.

To calculate rise / set it needs a time, to indicate when to start looking, if i give it the local time it starts the sequence with venus, if i don't correct for timezone it begins the sequence with saturn, just as the websites are reporting. For 'day of the week' to work correctly it needs a local time. So I'm not sure what's going on but i get the same results if i *don't* correct the start of the search for sunset to local time.

So it may work correctly now.

cd /Users/TT/Desktop/
wine ./SetupPlanetdance.exe /LOG="log.txt"
log.txt will be created in that map.

if SetupPlanetdance.exe is in the current path you have to use a dot/slash like

wine ./SetupPlanetdance.exe /LOG="log.txt"

log.txt will be created in that map. I saw you posted in the inno help forums too, we need the output from that log (if any) and see if they can help us there.
