[App_rpt-users] Help with weather scripts

[Christopher Kovacs]

These script have already been developed by me and I  take into
consideration abbreviations, and miss pronounced words such and "wind" as
"there is high wind alert now" vs "I wind my clock". And your right, it's a
lot of work and programming to get it right.

I have been using google tts without out any issues and never and any
issues pulling data from google translate web site.

In addition to wx alerts, it also can work on wx forecasts, and underground
wx reports.

These script have been running on the BBB Allstar  release without any
issues.  I do have an acid RPM, but there are some unique issues with
dependencies and old core-bin utilities that Centos is using. I have gotten
around these issues. I just need to modify the RPM package for 32-bin and
64-bit architectures as I use a later version of "sort" that is recompiled
executable.

73,
