Skylendar

Skylendar is a modern design astrology software, designed for the KDE 3.x desktop environment.

It includes a modern interface, a powerful data/restrictions sets management, drag'n'drop, multi-windows, animation and a SQL database searching/loading/saving interface. Skylendar is built upon the Swiss Ephemeris library (sweph), which uses precomputed ephemeris files.
