wmweather: README
-----------------

INSTALLATION

On Debian systems, install the Debian package: type

  # dpkg -i wmweather_*.deb

or run

  # apt-get install wmweather

Otherwise you have to compile the program first: change into the src/
subdirectory, type

  $ ./configure --help
  $ ./configure
  $ make

and then

  # make install

as root. The program may be uninstalled using one of the commands

  # dpkg -r wmweather
  # make uninstall

Note to BSD users: Make sure the following ports are installed: devel/gmake,
and devel/libgnugetopt, and use gmake instead of make above.

Suggestions, how to improve the autoconf part of wmweather, are always
appreciated.


HOW TO USE THIS PROGRAM

Please read the manual page, type

  $ man wmweather

Edit the system-wide config file according to your location. If you are
upgrading from wmWeather 1.x then you may want to read the CHANGES file.


HINT

If you have a dialup internet connection, send wmweather SIGALRM in your ip-up
script after the connection has been established. This will force wmweather to
grab the latest weather report immediately.
