I require either (a) source code, or (b) algorithms for plotting the locations of the inner planets in their orbits (as seen from "above") for historical (1700-2000AD) dates. Extreme accuracy is not required. The eventual application is for the Macintosh, but any source code which I could hack or algorithms I could implement would be fine. Thanks, in advance, for any help; e-mail replies requested. -- Christopher Pettus | "Ganesha Said: 'Done!

There was a posting of an almanac that contains the information you need. At least I think it does. It is certainly worth a look. It is a hypercard stack called 'Almanac'.
