There is a PERL Script for Calculating Panchangam. I am not sure
whether it is synchronised for Sri Vaishnava use. I request members
who are well versed in software to try to convert this script into a
stand alone programme, which can be used by any one.
WARNING: This does not work on WINDOWS or MAC, you need SOLARIS or
UNIX to try the script.
All Due regards to Sri Ravishankar Mayavaram who originally pointed
out the source of the script in another esteemed electronic forum.
===========================================================
There is a perl script for computing panchanga at
ftp://ccftp.kyoto-su.ac.jp/pub/doc/sanskrit/pancanga/
For personal use, I think one can modify and get the data one needs.
especially for sa.nkalpam if one needs, naxatra, tithi, yoga, karaNa
etc at a particular place and at local time. It is quite handy.
Espcially things change during the day. In the following data, at the
end data is printed for 6, 8, 18, and 20 hours of 3/17/2001, and you
will see the changes. Especially if your prayer hour varies, you may
want to set it up for a range (6-8 am/pm)
====================================================================
Pancanga based on the Suryasiddhanta
Day requested = AD 2001 3 17
JD (at noon) = 2451986 Saturday
Local latitude = 30.3
Requested time = 6h: 0m
===================================================================
Nirayana True Longitude
Sun 11s 3d 0' 14"
Moon 8s 8d 5' 59"
Mercury 0s 0d 0' 0"
Venus 0s 0d 0' 0"
Mars 0s 0d 0' 0"
Jupiter 0s 0d 0' 0"
Saturn 0s 0d 0' 0"
Candrocca 9s 24d 21' 9"
Rahu 2s 21d 42' 31"
Local sunrise = 6h 6m
ayanamsa = 22d 31m
Jovian(North) = vijaya(27)
Jovian(South) = vikrama(14)
Lunar Month = Phalguna
Paksha = K 8 (fraction = 0.924)
Solar masa/day = Mina /4
samkranti on = 2001/ 3/14
samkranti at = 5h:48m
naksatra = Mula
karana = kaulava
yoga = vyatIpAta
============================================================
6h Phalguna K 8(0.924) Mula kaulava vyatIpAta
8h Phalguna K 9(0.003) Mula taitila vyatIpAta
18h Phalguna K 9(0.398) P-asadha taitila varIyas
20h Phalguna K 9(0.477) P-asadha taitila varIyas
=============================================================
Again, I am not sure wheter this panchangam is syncrhonised with Sri
Vaishnava useage. I request members who want to work on this script
to get in touch with elder members to figure out how to programme an
electronic panchangam for Sri Vaishnava use.

Adiyen Ramanuja Daasan,
