Few of you may know that I’m interested in astrology. About two months ago I have decided to
|
||
create an astrologers’ software for the GNOME desktop. Since then, I have contacted Jean-André
|
||
Santoni, who created a software called `Astrognome <https://code.google.com/p/astrognome/>`_ some
|
||
years ago. We exchanged some e-mails, and after several weeks of coding, I’m proud to present
|
||
`SWE-GLib <https://github.com/gergelypolonkai/swe-glib>`_ 1.0.1. This is “just” a library which
|
||
wraps `Swiss Ephemeris <http://www.astro.com/swisseph/>`_, creating a nice GLib-ish interface
|
||
around it. See the project page and the built-in GTK-Doc document for more information.
|
||
|
||
The astrologer’s software I’m writing will be Astrognome (you can check the `GitHub repository
|
||
<https://github.com/gergelypolonkai/astrognome>`_ already, thanks for Jean-André for letting me
|
||
use the name). It is currently in pre-alpha status, but already utilizes SWE-GLib (it just can’t
|
||
display the results yet). If you happen to be interested in astrology and/or Astrognome, fork the
|
||
repository and contribute! You can also contact me (or open an enhancement issue on GitHub) if
|
||
you have any ideas.
