kepler


    xyz = kepler(orbit, time)  
 or xyz = kepler(orbit, time, ma, ta, norb)  


return 3-dimsof(orbit(1,..))-by-dimsof(time) XYZ coordinates  
corresponding to the orbit(s) ORBIT and time(s) TIME.  Optionally  
return mean anomaly MA, true anomaly TA, and integer number of  
orbits, each a dimsof(orbit(1,..))-by-dimsof(time) array.  The  
MA and TA are in radians.  The x-axis is along the line of the  
vernal equinox, the z-axis is ecliptic north.  
ORBIT has leading dimension 12: [angle from perihelion, mean daily  
motion, semi-major axis, d/dt(semi-major axis), eccentricity,  
d/dt(eccentricity), longitude of ascending node, d/dt(ascending  
node), angle from ascending node to perihelion, d/dt(perihelion),  
inclination, d/dt(inclination)]  
(Six pairs of a quantity and its time derivative.)  
The angles are in degrees; d/dt units must match TIME units.  
Mean anomaly is not an angle in real space; it is the quantity  
proportional to time in Kepler's equation.  True anomaly is the  
angle from perihelion to planet.  
With a non-nil, non-zero full= keyword, return XYZUVW -- that is,  
six coordinates including velocities as well as positions.

kepler2


    xyz = kepler2(orbit, xyz0)  
 or xyz = kepler2(orbit, xyz0, time, ma, ta)  


return dimsof(xyz0) XYZ coordinates corresponding to the orbit(s)  
ORBIT and direction(s) XYZ0.  The dimensions of ORBIT beyond the  
first, if any, must match those of XYZ0, although XYZ0 may have  
any number of trailing dimensions.  
Optionally return TIME, mean anomaly MA, and true anomaly TA,  
each a dimsof(orbit(1,..))-by-dimsof(time) array.  The MA and TA  
are in radians.  The x-axis is along the line of the vernal  
equinox, the z-axis is ecliptic north.  The XYZ0 direction is first  
projected into the plane of the orbit; then XYZ will be proportional  
to XYZ0.  The time derivatives of the ORBIT elements are ignored.  
ORBIT has leading dimension 12: [angle from perihelion, mean daily  
motion, semi-major axis, d/dt(semi-major axis), eccentricity,  
d/dt(eccentricity), longitude of ascending node, d/dt(ascending  
node), angle from ascending node to perihelion, d/dt(perihelion),  
inclination, d/dt(inclination)]  
(Six pairs of a quantity and its time derivative.)  
The angles are in degrees; d/dt units must match TIME units.  
Mean anomaly is not an angle in real space; it is the quantity  
proportional to time in Kepler's equation.  True anomaly is the  
angle from perihelion to planet.

keybd_focus


    keybd_focus, on_off  


By default, graphics windows set a window manager hint which  
allows them to accept keyboard focus.  With ON_OFF zero, that  
hint will not be set when a new graphics window is created.  
This causes the window manager to refuse to offer keyboard  
focus to the graphics window -- very desirable, since it can't  
accept keyboard input anyway.  With fvwm, for example, this  
means keyboard focus can stay in the terminal window even when  
you are mouse zooming the graphics window.  However, many  
window managers confuse colormap focus with keyboard focus, so  
if you set the private=1 colormap in the window function, you  
may not be able to convince the window manager to give the  
graphics window colormap focus since it won't give it keyboard  
focus.  Weird.
