Hi, I am playing around with 'tangent universe' theme.

I use a .vbs to get weather from weather.com - it just writes the relevent data line by line to a text file. Coolmon for instance can display this ala line1,line3,line4 etc.

Just fooling around it's easy to get label to display a random line ie: randomLine('file')from my weather.txt file in a scrolling box - but no way to display only the first 3 lines say.

Is there any module/method to do this? I don't want to spend the time learning to use GetWeather unless absolutely necessary! ;)

cheers to all.
