There is a dos program, one version of which is available at
ftp.crc.ricoh.com:/pub/tides, which does current. You'll want the
tides.zip file and sf-tides.zip for the data. Dos only, ugly, no batch
mode, but it works.

I'm going to bug the xtides author for current prediction after he
releases the current beta version. I'm going to wait until then because
he's already added direct ppm bitmap output for me (us), and that alone
deserves him a beer and a break (now removing geek hat).
