The program 'A Moon for the Sun' by John Walker works excellent, but
it doesn't calculate the rise and set times of the moon.

A dutch self-made astronomer, Eise Eisinga, has made his made his own 
orrery using gear-wheels in the 17th(?) century. This orrery actually 
calculates these rise and set times for the moon (quite accurately). 

Is there anyone on the net, who has a program (in whatever language) that 
calculates rise and set times of the moon (given latitude and longitude). 

Thanks in advance.
