PNGPHOON(1) General Commands Manual PNGPHOON(1) NAME pngphoon -- Creates a png file with the current phase of the moon SYNOPSIS pngphoon [-w width] [-h height] [-f filename] [-x moons_in_x] [-y moons_in_y] [-s density] [-b] [-q] DESCRIPTION This manual page documents briefly the pngphoon command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. pngphoon is a program that creates a PNG image of the current phase of the moon. It is a successor to xphoon but does not write to the root window, but to a file. You can use it with window managers that accept commands for their background image settings. It is pronounced "ping- phoon" (like "typhoon"). OPTIONS This program takes the following options. -h Mandatory. Gives the image height. If the height is smaller than 760px, then only the center part will be created. -w Mandatory. Gives the image width. The image must be at least 760px wide to be able to contain the moon. If the image is smaller only the stars will be plotted. -f Mandatory. File name the PNG image shall be written to, for output to stdout use ``-'' (hyphen) instead of a filename. -x Number of moons in x axis (for multihead configurations) -y Number of moons in y axis (for multihead configurations) -s Star density -b Black (no earthlight) -S Southern hemisphere (rotate image 180 degrees) -q Quiet (disable warnings) AUTHOR The software was written by Sven Oliver ("SvOlli") Moll, based upon xphoon.
