[Xastir] Xastir and Ultimeter weather station

[Gerry Creager]

If you're willing to experiment a bit, try bringimg up wview on the Mac 
or a linux box and let it both report the data and give you a nice 
web-based dispkay?

That said, I seem to recall a bunch of Davis updates committed to cvs 
lately, so it should work preetty well for you.
