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

INSTALLATION

On Debian systems, install the Debian package: type `dpkg -i wmweather_*.deb'
as root. 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 the command
`dpkg -r wmweather' or `make uninstall', respectively.

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.
