+<P>MythWeather is a part of the <B>mythplugins</B> package. See
+<A HREF="mythtv-HOWTO-13.html#mythplugins_">MythPlugins</A> for instructions on downloading the
+tarball.</P>
+<P>
+<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>
+<PRE>
+$ cd ~/mythplugins-0.21
+$ ./configure --disable-all --enable-mythweather
+$ qmake mythplugins.pro
+$ make
+$ su
+# make install
+# exit
+</PRE>
+</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>

+<P>MythWeather uses MSNBC.com as its source for weather data and weather.com
+for its radar image.</P>
+<P>These are the keyboard commands for MythWeather:
+<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>
+<PRE>
+Left Key Goes back one page, and extends the time spent
+ on the page you are on.
+Right Key Goes forward one page, see above.
+Space Pause, wait on the current page until space is hit
+ again.
+Numeric Keys You can check other weather by keying in other ZIP codes.
+Enter Key Switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit. Can also
+ be used a way to force a data update.
+"m" Key Resets the location to the database default, then updates the data.
+"i" Enter / Save settings
+ESC Exit the settings screen without saving / Exit the program
+</PRE>
+</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>
+</P>
+<P>MythWeather also has an "Aggressiveness" setting. This affects how long
+MythWeather waits for data from the msnbc.com website before timing out. If
+you are on a slow connection, or have a slow DNS, or MythWeather just
+doesn't seem to be working and you've already tried everything else, then
+try increasing the aggressiveness level parameter. This parameter is
+inverse; a higher number actually means that MythWeather will be less
+aggressive, and will therefore wait longer before timing out.</P>
+<P>MythWeather will print debugging information on the terminal. If you wish
+to see additional debugging information while MythWeather is running, run
+mythweather from the command line with as <CODE>mythweather --debug</CODE></P>
+<P>You may also force mythweather to re-run the configuration by starting it on
+the command line as <CODE>mythweather --configure</CODE>. These two options are
+mutually exclusive.</P>
