internet_weather_metar.pl needs to have all of the starting lines as "#@" instead of "#" #@ Retrieves current weather conditions and forecasts using #@ "http://weather.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/mgetmetar.pl?cccc=[METARCODE]", where #@ [METARCODE] stands for the international local METAR (Meteorological Aviation Routine Weather Report) station ID. #@ see "http://weather.noaa.gov" to look up your local METAR Code. #@ As of now, this script works with an absolute path pointing to "c:/wetter.txt" and one METAR code: "EDDH". #@ You should substitute them with your path/data or put it into variables (which is better, of course). #@ There is also much more data in a METAR report than the piece of information i found most interesting to extract. #@ Now start looking for the sunshine ^-^: Rick Rick Steeves ri...@si... http://www.sinister.net |

But I've also changed things like this: web_href_tv = /tv web_href_tv2 = http://tvguide.com/Listings/index.asp?I=62004&Zip=55901 web_href_tv3 = http://tvguide.com/tv web_href_movies = http://www.google.com/search?&q=movie%3A+55901 to this: web_provider = 70620 #eb_href_tv = /tv web_href_tv = $config_parms{html_alias_tv} web_href_tv2 = http://tvguide.com/Listings/index.asp?I=$config_parms{web_provider}&Zip=$config_parms{zip_code} web_href_tv3 = http://tvguide.com/tv web_href_movies = http://www.google.com/search?&q=movie%3A+$config_parms{zip_code} Sorry for the line wrap! And I'm wondering what everyone's opinion on such changes. Also, it's just my opinion but shouldn't the default XAP and XPL setting in mh.ini be this: xap_disable=1 xpl_disable=1 BTW, reverse logic is nasty for new users. I'd really like to see it defaulted this way: xap_enable=0 xpl_enable=0 Now I didn't send any of these changes to Bruce for 2.101 because I'm sure that I could have broken some stuff with the above changes. As it stands I'm having trouble with the TV guide. I'll investigate that later. For now I'd just like to hear opinions on the above.

We want this to point to a url, like the local /tv web page, not html_alias_tv var, which points to the local files that /tv uses. > Sorry for the line wrap! > > And I'm wondering what everyone's opinion on such changes.

I don't think they cost much. Bruce |
