Swiss Ephemeris

## NAME

libswe - Swiss Ephemeris

## SYNOPSIS

**libswe** the Swiss Ephemeris

## DESCRIPTION

The Swiss Ephemeris did not arise in the UNIX/Gnu Linux world and hence does not have an  UNIX/Gnu Linux style manpage. It is however well documented in the following files:

/usr/share/doc/libswe-doc/swephprg.pdf

/usr/share/doc/libswe-doc/swisseph.pdf

/usr/share/doc/libswe-doc/swephprg.html

/usr/share/doc/libswe-doc/swisseph.html

This documentation can also be found on line on astrodienst's web pages.

## AUTHOR

The Swiss Ephemeris was written by Dieter Koch and Alois Treindl of Astrodienst.

This manual page was written by Paul Elliott \<pelliott@blackpatchpanel.com\>, for the Debian project (and may be used by others).
