News
01/23/07 * Sorry I haven't been posting lately...I just started back to school
so I have been preoccupied. However I do want to report some good news
and some bad news. First the bad news: I will not be updating this
software much more than I already have. Now for the good news: I have
begun a Completely new version with some exciting new features. I will
probably post a preliminary sketch sometime this week so I can keep you
posted on the progress. Some new features like the utilization of project
files which incorporate aspects of not only planets around stars, but the
stars themselves as well as locations. These aspects will then be used
to build output files such as the affore mentioned SSC and to include STC
and the Locations format for the SSC. AND YES!!! There will be a Tree
Structure in its interface.
