Weather/Time status.

[jbrock24]

I've been searching through XML and can't find any regular Time & Weather info coming through, do you know if this is a possible setting, or must you always do time/weather commands to gather it? My idea is to put in some type of Widget in the Toolbar for this, using a small picture to display Time and Weather combined. I am just not sure this is entirely possible.

Thanks!

I've gone through the xml from top to bottom and it's pretty safe to say they don't give out that information in any machine readable form. As far as i know you can either follow the manual commands or monitor atmospheric messaging but i don't feel comfortable baking that into the code. It doesn't seem reliable enough to be wroth it since you probably don't get any weather events while you're indoors etc. and you still have to check manually to be sure.

While not as flashy as a toolbar widget you could utilize lich to collect weather and time events into a custom window like they've done with moonwatch. This pretty much works under the same assumptions -- you need to have the sky visible to get correct information.
