NAME

       weatherrc - configuration file format for the weather(1) utility

DESCRIPTION

       The  weatherrc  file format is intended to specify a set of aliases by which to group URIs
       for METAR station conditions and alert/forecast zones, but other command-line options  and
       flags  for the weather utility can be specified as well.  The file is organized as an INI-
       format config, with the alias name in [] brackets and the associated parameter/value pairs
       on  following  lines.   Parameters  and  their  values are separated by = or : characters.
       Multi-word values do not need quoting.  These parameters are supported...

       alert  include local alert notices (possible values are False and True or 0 and 1)

       atypes list      of      alert      notification      types      to      display      (ex:
              tornado_warning,urgent_weather_message)

       cache  control all caching (possible values are False and True or 0 and 1)

       cache_data
              control retrieved data caching (possible values are False and True or 0 and 1)

       cache_search
              control search result caching (possible values are False and True or 0 and 1)

       cacheage
              duration in seconds to refresh cached data (ex: 900)

       cachedir
              directory for storing cached searches and data (ex: ~/.weather)

       conditions
              output current conditions (possible values are False and True or 0 and 1)

       defargs
              list of default command-line arguments (ex: avl,rdu)

       forecast
              include a local forecast (possible values are False and True or 0 and 1)

       headers
              list of conditions headers to display (ex: temperature,wind)

       imperial
              filter/convert  conditions for US/UK units (possible values are False and True or 0
              and 1)

       metric filter/convert conditions for metric units (possible values are False and True or 0
              and 1)

       quiet  skip preambles and don't indent (possible values are False and True or 0 and 1)

       setpath
              directory search path for correlation sets (ex: .:~/.weather)

       verbose
              show full decoded feeds (possible values are False and True or 0 and 1)

EXAMPLES

       The  following is an example ~/.weather/weatherrc defining a couple aliases named home and
       work to be displayed when running the utility with no aliases specified...

[default]
[home]
[work]
       Now if weather is invoked by itself on the command line, it  will  output  conditions  for
       home and work, and also a forecast for home only.
