Guys

I have this skin working with forecast for Brisbane Beaudesert area and all 
looks good, I would like to add the $aus search tag to another of my skins. 
I have placed aussearch.py in user dir but do I have to edit weewx.conf to 
make it available to other skins? I have tried this and everything comes to 
a screening halt. I will have to edit feels like because they are a little 
different at this location :).

Great work on this skin.

Neville
