About BWeather:
BWeather downloads weather information and forecasts for your city in order to show you what the clouds up above are doing. Run it as a window, or have it live in the deskbar for your weather viewing enjoyment. Both the weather and forecasts are downloaded from NOAA servers, in metar and iwin formats respectively.

Details about this version:
- Updating is now much fast in most instances. It was taking a long time to download and parse the forecast information, so now it goes ahead and displays the weather while it is downloading the forecast. Obviously if you don't live in the US, no forecast was available, so you won't get any speed increase. But if you do live in the US, I can't emphasize how much faster it is! Wow! I wish I had some sort of funny accent so that my "wow" would convey the amazement I feel; perhaps my telling you that I wish I could convey my amazement will convey my amazement.
- No more error messages! BWeather is now stubborn; it keeps trying to get the information until it gets it; it won't give up unless you do; I am not responsible for you giving up on life.
- BWeather now works as a replicant.
- BWeather also now accepts color drops. This feature was really needed for replicant mode. Note: I performed some sketchy programming to make this work. When I couldn't find the documentation I wanted, I started copying hex values. Sketchy sketchy programming.
- Fixed an itty bitty bug that would make double clicking to open the info window not work as you would like it to. It should now. If it doesn't, I would suggest beating me with a metal bat. I would not enjoy this, but it may be what you need to do to live with yourself. I can respect that, and sue you for it.
- Fixed tab ordering problem in preferences.
- This release is brought to you with a big thanks to Robert Burtcher and Nathan Whitehorn for compiling the binaries. Thanks you guys, you rock.
