   Program "Phaethon" calculates ephemeris for about 12,000  asteroids
from 1500 to 2200  years  with  a  minute  precision.  (A  demoversion
calculates ephemeris for 64 asteroids.)
   Asteroids are classified and their categories  are  marked  out  by
different colours.
   -- mythological (purple).  Mythological  asteroids  are  classified
according their archetypical  significance  (myth-Aries,  myth-Taurus)
and the interpretation  of  mythological  plots  and  meaning  of  the
asteroids are given (in Russian and in English).
   -- geographical (green)
   -- widespread names (yellow)
   -- famous people (blue)
   -- legendary persons (white)
   -- conceptions (red)
   -- far asteroids (cyan); and retrograde asteroids with transpluto orbite
(calculations for the last groop will be done in perspective).
   -- actual (brown). An astrologer can form the list of asteroid, which 
are usually actual for his work. In our variant 1500 asteroids with the 
most interesting names are chosen as actual.
   -- working list (blue-gray)
   -- inactive (light-gray). These are the asteroids, that would not be
useful in the astrological work (mainly the names of  the  astronomers
and asteroids that haven't yet a name but only a number). 
   You may change the category of any asteroid /by  pressing  a  SPACE
BAR, with the cursor in the column of classification/.
   
   The program allows:
   -- to select for calculation and work one  kind  of  the  asteroids
(for example, geo when you investigates the possibilities of  changing
the place of  living,  or  myth-Pisces  when  you  deal  with  psychic
problems) -- /F7/
   -- to sort the asteroids  according  their  coordinates  or  names,
numbers, categories or technical parameters -- /F6/
   -- to calculate the conjunctions of  asteroids  with  planets  (and
positions in houses) of a given chart -- /F3/. Table of  ephemeris  of
planets arises by typing F8 (the conjunctions of asteroids with  cusps
of houses aren't included in demoversion).
   --  to  find  asteroids  by  their  numbers  or  names  or  by  the
conjunction with planets /by writing number or several  first  letters
of name or planet, with the cursor in a corresponding column/
   -- to add some information to the description of  any  asteroid  if
necessary /F4 -- editing/
   -- to include names of the newly-named asteroids into  program  /by
pressing ENTER, with the cursor in the column of names/
   -- to save the corrected version of the program /F2/
   -- to save the calculated data a file -- /F5/ (and  then  to  print
it, exiting out of the program /F5 + prn/)
