[mh] Moonrise and moonset, tide information.

[Joey F. <joe...@gm...>]

Okay, so I am a marine science major, and one of the reasons that I want to
learn to use MH is because of it's ability to automate based on variables
and such. I want to get a "smart" and highly realistic environment for my
reef animals in my home reef systems. I work in a lab at the University of
South Carolina, and would love to be more handy with MH in order to get som=
e
cool things going there as well. I have recently finished writing some
simple scripts that handle some of my tasks, based on time_now, $Dark,
$Moon{brightness} and such, things that help me out considerably. I do not
see info for two things though, Moonrise and Moonset, and High and Low tide=
.
This is probably outside the range of needs that the average user will have=
,
but for me they are key. I have located some web pages that give a daily
prediction of these variables, but I have no clue how to make this
information useful to MH, so I can write perl scripts to automate things
accordingly.
So, here's what I mean. This
link<http://www.weather.com/outlook/recreation/boatandbeach/weather/tenday/=
USSC0051>has
information relative to my location, for tide, moonlight stuff: Can I
get MH to use any of this information, like it uses Sunrise and Sunset info
from online resources?
I would appreciate any and all help in this matter, as I am truly excited
about using MH, but I am just now learning my way around it.

Thanks for the help,
Joey
