REQUIREMENTS:

Internet connectivity
Linux 
Python 2.4
pyGTK 2.6+
imagemagick


INSTALLATION:

	Linux: If you have installed a previous version of pyRadarv2, type 'make uninstall' 
	in the directory where you unpacked pyRadar to remove the old version (see the 
	uninstallation section of the readme if you installed pyRadar in a non-default 
	location) and delete ~/.pyradar/last. Then, type 'make install'. Otherwise, if this is your first 
	installation of pyRadarv2, just type 'make install' as root in the directory where 
	you unpacked pyRadarv2.
	

INSTALLATION NOTES:

If you wish to install pyRadarv2 some where other than the default path type 
'make install PREFIX=[your install path]' instead of 'make install' (you
must be root)

In the root folder of the installation path there is an icon you can use for 
the program if you wish.

The default installation path is:

	Linux: /usr/lib/pyRadar


USAGE:

Assuming that /usr/local/bin is in your path (and you did not install pyRadar elsewhere), 
just type 'pyRadar' at the command prompt.

USAGE NOTES:

Changing the radar station or type of radar resets the loop, changing the update
frequency does not.

Changes to the update frequency do not take effect until the next update cycle.

UNINSTALLATION:

	Linux: From the directory where you extracted the source (or a directory where you
	re-extracted the source) type 'make uninstall' (as root). If you installed pyRadar
	to a non-default location you will have to run 'make uninstall PREFIX=[install path]'
	as root. (If you forgot the install path that you used, it is stored in 
	/etc/pyRadar/here)

TO-DO/Roadmap:
v1.0-final
Get looping workin again.

CHANGELOG:

Alpha 2:
Fixed "Always loading radar" bug.
