@fhmbrg please use the issues in the repo fo this, so others can benefit from it too.

the syntax is --main-indicator "FeelsLikeC" --dateformat "%d.%m.%Y". I should however change it to use --date-format instead of --dateformat, will update it later

This awesome, hackable Python version is public domain now, right?

Sure - it always was - but I don't know why one would prefer using this and not the Rust based implementation (which is MIT licensed, so practically also do whatever you want with it).

I personally prefer using this over the Rust solution, as it's easier (at least, to folks familiar with Python) to hack together, or configure, things the way we want to.

is the location grabbed automatically, or do we need to specify it? @fhmbrg has put a number in location, where do i get that number for my specific location? Thanks in advance

@veggiedev you can check the wttr docs to see what they allow. Visit their help page and check under Supported location types.

Can it show both "feelslikeC" and "tempC", if so, please, how to do that?

@daxisunder Just copy and paste line 95 and change one of them to be tempC, and also update the description accordingly.

The rust version allows you to use to use --custom-indicator to show multiple things as the main indicator.
