File Information
Description

This is an extension of what Belani did. The data obtained from yweather() function is displayed in a GUI.

The GUI displays the current weather information obtained from yahoo weather. Information includes current temperature, high, low, humidity, windchill, etc with a brief forecast for the following day. Choose between metric or english units. Enter your zipcode to find the latest weather info. I guess it only works for US.

You can find the original submission by Belani (File Id: 10414) at

The xml toolbox by Marc Molinari (File Id: 4278) is needed to run this GUI. You can get the toolbox from this url

Not a lot of contribution except for making it look a bit attractive using a GUI. Credit goes to Belani for his function. Thank you!
