Package: wnpp Version: N/A; reported 2002-05-03 Severity: wishlist * Package name : libastro-simbad-perl Version : 1.9.1 Upstream Author : Alasdair Allan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.cpan.org/authors/id/A/AA/AALLAN/ * License : GPL Description : Object-orientated interface to the SIMBAD astronomical database
The Astro::SIMBAD module is an object-orientated Perl interface to the SIMBAD astronomical database. SIMBAD provides basic data, cross-identifications and bibliography for astronomical objects outside the solar system. Currently the module is in the inital stages of development, and I'm following the release early, release often paradigm. SIMBAD can currently be queried by co-ordinates and by identifier, alrhough not yet by bibcode. Only minimal information is mined, although URLs pointing to further, and more detailed, information are stored along with this data. More functionality should arrive soon. -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux compsoc 2.4.18 #1 Sat Mar 2 16:16:34 GMT 2002 i586 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
