Surely comp.misc is the right place for this, feel free to laugh or
flame as suits you.
I have written a couple of simple programs that set the system time
from the Heathkit "Most Accurate Clock" and produce a weather report
from the "Weather Computer ID-5001". Needless to say, each of my
units has the RS-232 accessory.
What I would like to know is if anyone has written any programs or awk
scripts that do historical analysis of such data, e.g. how much does
the system clock drift with respect to "Most Accurate Clock"?; what's
the week, month, and year to date rainfall and how does it compare with
last year?
I'll be glad to share my lamebrained code with anyone who wants it, but
I'm more interested in hearing from people who have progressed beyond
where I am. Thanks,
