[Nml] Tide and Current Prediction for DOS


Subject: [Nml] Tide and Current Prediction for DOS
From: John Peterson (peterson@XXX.XXX)

Hello all. I use, or I have been using "Tides and Currents for DOS"
running on my palmtop HP-200, which is a hand held DOS based computer to
predict Tides and currents and it has been great until December 31. It
seems that in 1999 my HP handheld changes to 4 year date field i.e. from
98 to 1999 and this software hence became a premature mortality to the
Y2K problem. I called the company, and they say they don't plan to fix
their DOS software and they sent me their windows version, which is fine
for my desk but won't run on my palmtop.
Does anyone know of a DOS program that will accurately predict tides for
a given location? I really miss my old software, having it on the boat
was the nicest aid to navigation, short of Polaris. any advice greatly
appreciated.
J. Peterson
