Best I came up with was "kswug", a kicker applet written in C++ 
that just polls a directory for an xpm every 5 seconds (to 
display temperature and "feels like" temperature, heat index or 
windchill accordingly) and a perl script that actually scrapes a 
web page for the pertinent information and dumps an xpm out 
there for it to find.  I've been meaning to generalize it more 
so you could configure multiple displays and assign different 
programs to each one, but I sure would like it better if I could 
just do it all natively with PerlQt.
