Re: [guide-user] Bold lines/celestial equator/B1.0 display/asteroid oppositions

Doug Snyder Jun 21, 2003

I've downloaded what is listed as the latest update (April 18), and
extracted files to the Guide directory. But when I open the program, Help
shows I'm still using March 29 version and when I go to 'Styles' for
choosing line style, I don't have an option for 'wider' or 'narrower'. In
Windows Exploder, the date on my Guide8.exe is 4/18/20003. Is there a more
recently posted update somewhere? Thanks.

(Kind of distracted - we've got a (new) huge forest fire going on just to
the west of us here in southeastern Arizona and I'm trying to follow that
with binoculars - this is different than the Mt. Lemmon fire near Tucson)

Thanks,
Doug Snyder
