#2./ansiweather: line 76: jq: command not found

#3I am thinking more and more about moving back to a text-only interface - previously I was very happy with mutt, tin, lynx (and links and w3m), centericq, etc, but only bash and vim stuck with me.
Yet with the advent of unicode, there are fewer needs for a graphical interface - stay for a weather app. A clutter-free desktop consisting of mostly bash, along with gnu screen (or the likes) and ssh (or the likes) to remotely connect to home, now that would be efficient!
Even better - a few weeks ago, I found out that for math stuff, stata on OSX can be used with a command-line.
[PS: As usual Frederic, totally awesome :-)]

Go to http://openweathermap.org and find your city, then copy the name it says.
