Astro::Time, Astro::Coord and Astro::Misc provide a collection of useful astronomical routines written entirely in Perl. The routines provided include various time conversions, coordinate transformations, and string parsing as well as a number of astronomical tools. These routines should be used at your own risk! Most should give reasonable accurate results, but spot checks against your favorite program are recommenced. The B1950/J2000/Galactic coordinate routines are based on SLALIB routines and agree very closely.
