\fBpngphoon\fR is a program that creates a PNG image 
of the current phase of the moon. It is a successor to xphoon but does not 
write to the root window, but to a file.  You can use it with window 
managers that accept commands for their background image settings.   
It is pronounced "pingphoon" (like "typhoon").
