README

CurseTheWeather is a python application which displays the weather in a 
terminal via a ncurses frontend (ctw).  This frontend shows ascii-art weather 
icons along with the current weather conditions and 5 day forecast.

weatherfeed.py is the python module that grabs the weather data from 
weather.com, and it can used by frontends other than ctw.

** Please note ** CTW does not currently display a full 10 day forecast 
due to changes with weather.com.

** ctw and Transparency, Different Colors **

To modify transparency and color behavior in ctw simply modify 
initColors() in /usr/bin/ctw.  

To remove transparency, simply delete:
  curses.use_default_colors()
at line 125 (just under "curses.start_color()").

Modifying the lines with "curses.init_pair" will allow you to modify the text 
colors used.
