+<DT>1.
+<DD>The date is in a dynamical timescale (TDB, formerly ET)
+and is in the form of a Modified
+Julian Date (JD-2400000.5). For all practical purposes, TT can
+ be used instead of TDB, and for many applications UT will do
+ (except for the Moon).
+ <DT>2.
+<DD>The longitude and latitude allow correction for geocentric
+ parallax. This is a major effect for the Moon, but in the
+ context of the limited accuracy of the present routine its
+ effect on planetary positions is small (negligible for the
+ outer planets). Geocentric positions can be generated by
+ appropriate use of the routines sla_DMOON and sla_PLANET.
+ <DT>3.
+<DD>The direction accuracy (arcsec, 1000-3000AD) is of order:
+ <PRE><TT>
+ Sun 5
+ Mercury 2
+ Venus 10
+ Moon 30
+ Mars 50
+ Jupiter 90
+ Saturn 90
+ Uranus 90
+ Neptune 10
+ Pluto 1&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1885-2099AD only)
+</TT></PRE>
+ The angular diameter accuracy is about 0.4% for the Moon,
+ and 0.01% or better for the Sun and planets.
+ For more information on accuracy,
+ refer to the routines sla_PLANET and sla_DMOON,
+ which the present routine uses.
