Lunabar 6: the Digital Lunar Almanack

“The word ‘lunatic’ came from zealots who danced about mischievously during the full moon. If you're feeling that putting up with some of Windows’ operating tics is driving you to lunacy in and of itself, why not pay homage to the inevitable insanity by adding a lunar almanac to your taskbar?” - Maximum PC Magazine

For thousands of years, people have observed, been fascinated by, and even worshipped the moon. Helping to bring the art of the almanack into the next millennium, Infra-Azure Labs (formerly Clysmic Software) presents Lunabar, the Digital Lunar Almanack.

Lunabar puts a lunar almanack in your taskbar. It accurately shows the current phase of the moon, the times of moonrise, moon southing, and moonset, and the zodiacal constellation and sign. The phase, constellation or zodiacal sign is shown in a tooltip window when your mouse hovers over the icon, and a full lunar almanack is just a click away.

There are many graphical features, such as selectable fonts and "themes." There is a full installation and uninstallation program and a help file.

Lunabar can display many full moon name 'traditions.' It can display moon phases in astronomical or astrological format, appealing to a wide range of users. There also are many popup features: moonlight hours window, position in constellation/sign.

Lunabar shows sunrise and sunset, the constellation and sign of the Sun, and the current Planetary Hour.

For international users, Lunabar uses your Windows system's settings for time zone, daylight savings time, and time display format. Also there's full support for southern hemisphere users.
Version 6

There's pretty much too many features in Lunabar 6.00 to list: it's quite an improvement over what came before. There are new toolbars, moon graphics, higher accuracy coming out of a VOC, new taskbar icons, most of which support the full colors and smoothing of tray icons in XP and above, and lots of other goodies.

Version 6.10 adds new icons, the return of worldwide location lists and the "realistic moon" icons, some bug fixes, and a corrected (and larger) moon void of course table.
