Announcing: Night Vision 2.1
Night Vision is a "planetarium" program for OS/2, and will display the

various star parameters. Time may be set to run at multiple speeds,
including backwards. Star charts may be printed.
* * New with version 2.1 * *
-> Star window continuously updates as scroll bars are dragged by
mouse.
