Changes

VersionChangesAuthorDate
3.4.0-1* Added a new page, "Planet Elevations", which displays the elevation

   of the Sun, Moon and planets as a function of UT and LST

* Added a new "Planet Phenomena" page, which shows the time of

   conjunction, opposition, greatest elongation, etc for each planet.

* Added code to cause the app to detect when the window manager has

   shrunk it, and it has lost focus. When that happens, it now

   displays the phase of the Moon, along with the UT and LST in

   very large (78 point!) font, so that they remain legible on

   the shrunken display.

* Added the Sun and Moon to the planet compass page.

* Fixed a bug which caused the Sun and Moon rise/set times to occasionally

   be in error by a couple of minutes.

* Changed the color scheme on the Planet Compass page

* Added likely() unlikely() macros which are called in the coordinate

   conversion functions, to give the compiler optimization hints.

   Also flagged the error exit points unlikely(). The executable

   code got smaller after this.
