Free acme test weather software for linux

Better Weather contains a couple of scripts using normal KDE and Linux tools to provide better display of weather info than KDEs weather applet. It downloads the information from the US national weather service and maps from weather.com. Two launchers on the main menubar bring up the window separately. Full details and instructions are in the readme.

This is a solution that worked for me, not being a coder. You have to make it work for you. Its an idea and a set of tools. Its also US-centric, but someone may take the idea and make it work just as well anywhere. I hope someone finds it as useful as I do.

WHAT IT DOES

The tools I wrote are two *very* simple bash scripts. The script, localwx.sh, invokes the python weather utility, and downloads the current weather conditions and forecast in text format from the weather service. It stores the information temporarily in a text file (I chose the desktop as the directory in which to save it.) It then "reads" the text file into a kdialog box. When the "ok" button is clicked, the temporary file is deleted.

The other script, wxmap.sh, downloads a current local weather map image using wget, saves it temporarily to the desktop, and calls Kview to display it. When Kview closes, the temporary image file is deleted.

HOW I DID IT

The man pages for "weather," "kdialog," and "wget" were useful for determining which options to use. The script for weather forecasts has to be edited to receive the data for the users current location. My nearest airport is PDK, so my ID was "KPDK." The rest is straightforward enough. To make the weather map script work, you can go to weather.com or your local tv station website and copy the image location for the weather map they use. It can be pasted into the script.

Once the scripts were edited to suit, I made them executable (chmod +x filename), copied them to /usr/local/bin, and created a launcher for each in my main menubar. Describing the process is a lot more difficult than actually doing the work!

One-Wire Weather is a client program for Dallas Semiconductor / AAG 1-wire weather station kits, providing a graphical (animated) display to monitor outside temperature, wind speed and direction, rainfall, and humidity.
Extra temperature sensors may be added. A 1-wire "hub" may be used for improved reliability and range. Weather data may be logged to CSV files, parsed to command line programs, sent to the Henriksen Windows client, or uploaded to Web servers at Dallas, The Weather Underground, and HAMweather.
Enhancements:
- Changes to libusb calls, to operate correctly with recent Linux kernels.
- Added facility for waveform slew/timing adjustment for DS2490.
- Locale now set to POSIX when creating output for wunderground, &c - so you can log e.g. with comma as decimal separator, but wunderground gets a full stop.
- Rain from a remote source is integrated for upload (but please could people check if this works for you).
- Initial support for DS2760 - e.g. AAG TAI8560 thermocouple adapter (but the thermocouple Voltage isnt interpreted yet).
- Added facility for placing control characters in parser strings, as C-style escape sequences.
- Added dailyrain statistic for wunderground uploads, &c.
- Implemented rapid update for wunderground.

CPAN::Test::Others is a Perl module to include tests for other modules on CPAN.

SYNOPSIS

You dont have any use for this module, just run its tests and report them to CPAN Testers

Sometimes I have an urge to write tests for other modules. Getting these tests included in the real distributin is not always easy, other module authors are busy too. They might have a real life.

So this module does not have its own code, it only has prerequisites and tests for those other modules.

Test::Parser is a collection of parsers for different test output file formats. These parse the data into a general purpose data structure that can then be used to create reports, do post-processing analysis, etc.

Test-Parser can also export tests in SpikeSources TRPI test description XML language.

MOHA Chat is a chat solution which comes with a intuitive Web client and can run on most shared hosts. MOHA Chat consumes fewer resources on the server side and is fast on the client side.

The project uses AJAX to retrieve the chat messages and user status. The client polls the server at regular intervals. It currently supports only one-to-one chatting with the Web client. The Web client encrypts messages using a key unique to the client when sending a message to the server and vice versa.

Acme::Comment is a Perl module that allows multi-line comments which are filtered out.

SYNOPSIS

use Acme::Comment type=>C++, own_line=>1;

/*
if (ref $mod) {
$bar->{do}->blat(msg => blarg);
eval {

im sooo sick of this time for some coffee

*/

// I prefer beer. --sqrn

Unlike the pseudo multi-line comment if (0) {}, the code being commented out need not be syntactically valid.
