There's also another script floating around that uses lynx -dump. It was written by Kitty Litter from the Speakup list, and has a couple more features than this one. Notably, the command line options can be pre-populated from an environment variable (useful if you normally get the weather for a single location). There's also a moon-phase option, and I don't recall what else. I don't know whether he ever intended to publish it. -- Chris
