FuriusMoonlet

Description:

A port of my FuriusMoon superKaramba theme (http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Furius+Moon?content=74168)

Furius Moon is a very simple moon phase calender showing the current phase of the moon. Yes, I know, completely pointless!

The code is very basic and easy to understand. The math is based on www.faqs.org/faqs/astronomy/faq/part3/section-15.html. This should be accurate to within a day or so, but don’t go setting your watch by it!

Anyway, here it is...

Last changelog:

Version 1.0 (repack) It seems there may have been a problem with the package 8P
Version 1.0 - 18 March 2008
Following an extended period with no bugs being reported, I have added a Screenlets Manager Icon and released as final version.

This is awesome! Trouble is I'm a South Hemispherian... Any chance you can make it so it looks like my moon down here in lil ol' NZ? In other words cycling "backwards"?

Hate to do this after you've released the final, but I cant get the screenlet to move. It opens in the top left corner but doesnt budge. Am I missing something?

This seems rather strange. You 'should' be able to just drag the moon about the screen. Try right-clicking on the widget and under the 'Window' option make sure that 'Lock' is not ticked. Sorry I can be of no further help.

I don't know about that repackage, it still didn't work for me. Try this:

1)Uninstall the furiusMoon you have now
2)Open up the archive, edit "FuriusMoonScreenlet.py" so that on line 31, "hover = True"
3)Install the changed version and now you will actually be able to do something with it.

I have re-packaged and uploaded the files again. This time the files size is a lot larger(?). Perhaps something got corrupted in my initial upload of version 1. Please let me know how you get on.
