That's a really interesting point, between weewx as a system daemon with config in the standard place, and alternate config. I would suggest that by default the standard config is read and there is a "-C /path/to/the/weewx.conf/I/want/to/use" and also have that file be able to set paths to database, etc. Also for development one could just do the normal install with --prefix=$HOME/weewx-devel or whatever, I think. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-development" group.
