Info on which astrology ststem it uses? [Label question]

[Zerokami]

I don't have experience in astrology so I don't know much.
But I know there are different astrology systems like Western or Vedic (Indian). The vedic again has South and North.
I'm interested in the Indian or vedic system.

Which system does this software use?
Any tips on adding Vedic system if not available already?

Thanks!

I've been tinkering with this and have a local copy that is somewhat different that I have yet to fork/commit -- I'm woefully ignorant of the ways of git.

The version that is on github now has a tropical mode as well as a sidereal mode, but the sidereal uses uneven zodiac signs. I've updated it (again, alas, locally) to incorporate Fagan-Allen as well as Lahiri ayanamsas with 30-degree signs. I've been working on adding harmonics features (aka varga charts, in jyotish) as well as some rudimentary paranatellontas and primary directions features as well to suit my interests. I know you posted your question nearly two and a half years ago, but if you're interested, I'll try to figure out how to commit back my changes...

@jbaudhuin Can you slightly rename your version --- call it _ Fagan-Allen Zodiac_ --- and put it up at https://github.com/jbaudhuin and place a note here saying that you have done so.

It is: https://github.com/jbaudhuin/joshb-work-sidereal. Build instructions are somewhat spotty. I have finally updated the readme file explaining what I've been adding to this. I'll try to update today for build-instructions, but essentially you'll need boost libraries because I have added transit/natal event searches and wanted to use a root finding algorithm for this. It's also based on Qt-5.15.x at this point (Qt-6 should be supported as well, but I have found redraw not to work particularly well with that build, and I'm not sure if there is some new Qt6 expectation or assumption.)
