But still it doesn't quite work for me:
cer@nimrodel:~> GrabWeather LEMD Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/X11R6/bin/GrabWeather line 200. cer@nimrodel:~>
I get the same, apparently SkyConditions is not provided ??
But even so, I got some data. I try another time,and it fails. I'm trying manually with wget, and it's taking an awfull long time... ah, now, it got it; Longer than needed to type this message. It seems to be a very slowwwww server.
agreed, verrrry slow...
The gnome weather applet its taking its data from the very same server, but using http protocol instead of ftp (tgftp.nws.noaa.gov:http) - I have an iptraf window open, and it has downloaded 7187 bytes - a lot - but it took seconds.
I wonder if that info is mirrored somewhere else, not only a US server? Or does everybody in the world request it from there... :-?
