You know, at first i really thought you had written texts yourself overnight.  ;D

I'm sorry to disappoint you, first these texts probably have some copyright. Second, frankly i don't like them that much, deterministic, dramatic and sometimes really questionable. I really like my retro jupiter in 12 for instance and did not recognize the text (The person suffers from a strong inferiority complex) about it at all, and i think it is rather intimidating.

I'm sorry.

Of course they are not mine. I only translated them to English in order to provide them to you for having that possibility in the PD to analyze the retrograde planets.
To be honest, I don't like them either.

But, as it is the possibility to have Ruler of house X in house Y and Ruler of X is in Z sign and N house and not all the text files from PD contain interpretations for this, I thougt that technical possibility is independant of the existence of texts. Anyways, everyone could enter his own text, but at least to have the possibility to do this.

But I understand, if you don't agree to work for this module, there is no problem  :D

The workaround for this is to add at each text another paragraph: "if the X is retrograde, then ..."

PD is a treasure with or without this small request!

Hi Jean,

Please help me. I have some misunderstandings with the time zone.

In "maketext.ab" I have

strset(b, "%l %s born on %s at %s in %s", "Interpretation for", s, ds, ts, plc);

is resulting in:

"Interpretation for Ana born on 29/10/1980 at 23:51:00 in Bacau, Romania, 26e54, 46n34, Europe/Bucharest"

The last info, Europe/Bucharest is the time zone, but it could be a little confusing, since the city of birth is Bacau and the last city, Bucharet, could be understood as being the birth city, which is not.

Seeing in the help of AstroBasic that the flag 0 returns time zone, I changed

gethoroscopeplace(0, plc, 1) to gethoroscopeplace(0, plc, 0);

but, unfortunately it returned a number, 317

Interpretation for Ana born on 29/10/1980 at 23:51:00 in Bacau, Romania, 26e54, 46n34, 317"

This 317 must be the time zone (EET, in this case) but how to make it showing EET instead of 317?

Thank you
All the best,

OK, so that flag value 2 from gethoroscopeplace(0, plc, 2); doesn't add anything
Yes, it's a good workaround
Is not possible to show EET, or the time zone, right?

Anyway, is better to have only coordinates, instead of that long name

Thank you!
All the best,
