    unable to access that from a macOS launchd job, even running as the
    owner of the direcory. At the moment I am also looking in
    File::HomeDir->my_dist_data(), which experimentation seems to show
    is accessible to a launchd job. But that may not be its final
    resting place. The my_dist_config() location will still be found --
    this is just a band-aid for those who use this code in scheduled
    jobs.

0.043		2020-01-17	T. R. Wyant
    Fix y2020 problem when using Date::Manip for input. The ISO8601
    parser appears to be unaffected.

0.042		2019-11-03	T. R. Wyant
    Fix redirects in POD URL links.

    Implement \U and friends inside double quotes, except for \Q. If run
    under Perl before version 5.15.8, \F is equivalent to \L.

    Add interactive method error(). This aborts the macro or include
    file in which it appears, displaying an error message.

    Add if() operators -z and -n, which are analogous to the test (1)
    operators of the same name.

    Macro definitions are no longer unescaped. Unescaping was preventing
    the \U ... functionality from working in a macro, and had no known
    benefits. I must have put it in there for some reason, but I no
    longer know why.

    Correct eg/pass_ics to alert before and at rise.

0.041		2019-10-04	T. R. Wyant
    Fix validation error caught by Astro::Coord::ECI 0.109_01.

    Validate horizon, latitude, and longitude.

    Add -verbose to macro( load => ... )

0.040		2019-07-20	T. R. Wyant
    Fix broken POD links and add test to ensure they stay fixed.

    Remove Astro::App::Satpass2::Format::Classic refs. This module was
    retired quite a while back.

0.039		2019-03-29	T. R. Wyant
    Fix test failures when local zone not determined. This was a single
    test in t/format_template.t that attempted to use
    DateTime::Calendar::Christian to format March 15, 44 BC. The problem
    is referred from DateTime::TimeZone::Local, which can not determine
    the local zone under Haiku, and dies. Thanks to Serguei Trouchelle
    for the tests that exposed this.

0.038		2019-03-13	T. R. Wyant
    The 'model' setting is no longer ignored. It is now actually applied
    to the TLE objects when loading them, and a change in value causes
    all loaded TLEs to be modified as well.

    Make ::TLE::Iridium optional.

0.037		2018-10-28	T. R. Wyant
    Fix test failure in t/locale.t. I hope. Some of the CPAN testers
    get errors like

      do "t/locale/fu_BAR.pm" failed, '.' is no longer in @INC; did you
      mean do "./t/locale/fu_BAR.pm"? at ...
      gglib/Astro/App/Satpass2/Locale.pm line 210.

    but I can't duplicate this, even under Perls that manifestly do not
    have '.' or any facimile thereof in @INC.

0.036		2018-10-17	T. R. Wyant
    Support alternate Sun and Moon classes, and other bodies that
    contain built-in models (e.g. Astro::Coord::ECI::VSOP87D::*).

    Add sky() settings to the output of save().

    Proper display of formatter template names.

0.035		2018-01-26	T. R. Wyant
    TODO test because of changed equinox algorithm.

    Remove mailto: bug reporting metadata.  Not that I refuse these, it
    is just that it appears to cause RT to think I will not accept bug
    reports from them.

    Support for decayed Iridium satellites.

0.034		2017-04-01	T. R. Wyant
  Update FormatTime/DateTime.pm calendar_name code to take advantage of
    the calendar_name() method if present.

  Add 'provides' data to ExtUtils::MakeMaker output

0.033		2017-01-12	T. R. Wyant
  Protect tests from local zone problems

  Use 'use parent' instead of 'use base'.

0.032		2016-12-11	T. R. Wyant
  Use time_local() and time_gm() from Astro::Coord::ECI::Utils. This
    requires Astro::Coord::ECI::Utils 0.077.

    The problem here is that earlier in the year I found that Time::Local
    worked better for dates well away from the current year if I passed it
    the Gregorian year rather than computing the Perl year. But I support
    Time::y2038 for the benefit of older Perls, and it expects a Perl year.
    The fix was to wrap the Time::y2038 calls in code that duplicates
    Time::Local's year handling.

    Thanks to Slaven Rezic for finding this, and for having smokers
    configured with modules like Time::y2038 (which is optional for this
    package) so that he _could_ find it. Kudos!

  Better diagnostics for Date::Manip::DM5 test fails

  Fix deep recursion in ::Macro->wail() & friends

  Support formatting times with any class conforming to the DateTime
    interface, via formatter attribute 'back_end'. If
    DateTime::Calendar::Christian is used her, require version 0.06.

  Support using DateTime (if available) to convert a parsed ISO-8601
    time to epoch. An arbitrary class confirming to the DateTime
    interface can be used instead, if specified.

    and document its arguments.

  The formatter object now displays its time_formatter attribute as a
    short name where possible.

  Add time_formatter value to 'show' output.

  Allow specifying a time as a scalar reference, The dereferenced value
    is interpreted as epoch.

  Special-case DateTime strftime() format %{calendar_name} to display
    the name of the calendar in use.

  Heuristics to make ODF geocoding more useful. I hope.

  Retract support for Geo::Coder::Geocoder::US. The underlying web site
    has been AWOL since late 2015.

0.031		2016-02-24	T. R. Wyant
  Consolidate development changes into next production release.

  Correct and clean up recommended-module code.

  Document anticipated retraction of Geo::Coder::Geocoder::US geocoding
    support. Skip t/geocode_geocoder_us.t unless author testing

  Add Makefile targets authortest, testcover

0.030		2016-01-05	T. R. Wyant
  Add GitHub repository to metadata.

0.029		2015-12-23	T. R. Wyant

  Make OSM the default geocoder.
    The problem is that geocoder.us (the originial geocoder) has been
    offline for a couple weeks, and it makes no sense to have a broken
    default.

0.028		2015-08-29	T. R. Wyant
  Remove notices saying this is alpha code.

  Try to quash errors under Cygwin using DateTime. The problem is that
    we think we can use it, but we get failures when initializing
    because DateTime::TimeZone can not determine the local zone. We
    handle this by checking for it and falling back to POSIX formatting
    if needed.

  Sanitize TZ before using it in tests.

  Eliminate use of deprecated Geo::WebService::Elevation::USGS 'source'
    attribute.

0.027		2015-07-11	T. R. Wyant
  This release should be functionally identical to 0.026, but was made
    because I wanted a production release that superseded 0.026_01,
    which was made due to a bad patch I developed for Date::Manip.

0.026		2015-06-26	T. R. Wyant
  Change localization of equinoxes and solstices to take advantage of
    the Astro::Coord::ECI southern hemisphere functionality. This
    includes not only the default C locale but eg/es.pm.

  Specify encoding UTF-8 for source files. This was always intended, but
    never actually done.

  Skip t/parse_time_date_manip_6.t if Date::Manip and DateTimeTimeZone
    come up with different zones. This is because Date::Manip may not
    default to the right zone under at least some BSD variants,
    resulting in failing tests.

0.025		2015-03-29	T. R. Wyant
  Track interface change to Date::Manip >= 6.49. This involves using the
    SetDate configuration variable instead of TZ, and silently making
    'gmt' (any case) into 'UT'.

0.024		2015-01-10	T. R. Wyant
  Remove TomTom support.
    As of January 5 2015, Geo::Coder::TomTom requires an API key. Since
    I have not been supporting geocoders that require registration,
    TomTom has been dropped. It has not worked since November 2014
    anyway.

0.023		2014-11-17	T. R. Wyant
  Address CPAN Testers failures in t/locale.t under the combination of
    Perl 5.20.1 and MSWin32.

0.022		2014-11-08	T. R. Wyant
  Remove all reference to the 'lit' attribute. This has been removed in
    favor of 'edge_of_earths_shadow'.

  Suspend support for geocoding via TomTom. It appears that TomTom has
    retracted the undelying web service. Support in this package will be
    retracted May 1 2015 unless the situation is resolved favorably
    before then. If the situation is resolved unfavorably before then,
    support will be retracted when I become aware of the fact.

0.021		2014-09-17	T. R. Wyant
  Correctly handle tz attribute when the DateTime date formatter is in
    use.

  Fix bug in spacetrack -verbose search_oid and friends.

  Add -setup option to perl() method. This causes the arguments to be
    recorded and emitted by the save() method.

  More informative DateTime time zone error message.

  Rewrite object-specific formatter code to place dispatchers in the
    Astro::App::Satpass2::FormatValue name space rather than use
    AUTOLOAD().  The AUTOLOAD() implementation caused all sorts of
    smoker errors that I was unable to reproduce, and I was averse to
    blindly writing stubs for Perl-defined subroutines.

  Remove subroutine Astro::App::Satpass2::Utils::fold_case(). This is
    documented as private, but since is _was_ documented I decided to
    put it through an abbreviated deprecation cycle.

  Add add() method to Astro::App::Satpass2. This validates and adds TLE
    objects.

  Remove ::Format::Template::Provider from t/basic.t

  Fix test failures in t/locale.t

  Force stringification of Template::Exception.

  Have the tle_verbose template ignore non-TLE data.

  Fix bug in -choose foo,bar which caused only 'foo' to be chosen.

  Add real localization support. This addresses almost all text seen by
    the user, though I have not done a lot on error messages other than
    put in the calls. A very rough Spanish localization is provided in
    eg/.

  Generate format selection options for tle() based on available
    templates. Basically, if you load template eg/tle_json.tt as
    'tle_json', the -json option will cause that template to be used.

  Drop Astro::App::Satpass2::Format::Template::Provider.

  Refactor and rationalize formatter code.

  Add Astro::App::Satpass2::FormatValue::Formatter to implement custom
    formatters without subclassing. THIS IS EXPERIMENTAL.

  Add Satpass2 interactive method perl(). This executes some Perl,
    either from a file or via an eval. The invocant comes in in
    $ARGV[0].

0.020		2014-06-12	T. R. Wyant
  Make use of the TLE illuminated() method To calculate illumination for
    the position() method. This requires Astro::Coord::ECI::TLE 0.064.

0.019		2014-05-14	T. R. Wyant
  Require Astro::Coord::ECI (etc) 0.063.

  Drop default template documentation, which was only intended for
    informational purposes. Instead, we document how to extract the
    default templates.

  Add support for magnitudes. This involves:

    * Add a pass_variant attribute so we can ask for the brightest
      moment in the pass.

    * Add a -brightest option to pass() to override pass_variant, so
      that the interface is at least semi-consistent.

    * Modify the value formatter's magnitude() formatter so that, if
      there is no {magnitude} key in the thing being formatted, but
      there is a magnitude() method on the body, that method is called
      and the result formatted.

    * Modify the template for pass() to check to see whether
      PASS_VARIANT_BRIGHTEST is set, and if so add a magnitude column to
      the report.

    The last point above required a number of supporting changes:

    - Add a want_pass_variant() convenience method to return true if the
      specific variant is wanted.
