yessir, I did miss it. thank you so much.
as you can tell, I have no idea what I'm doing. but when I ran the command,
I still got file not found. for what it's worth, I started to look through
the files and noticed that the /weatherlink_link/ folder in the following
path doesn't appear to exist. maybe this is totally normal, but I found the
__init__.py file in the /user/ folder and there appears to be no
/weatherlink_link/.
No such file or directory:
'/usr/share/weewx/user/weatherlink_live/__init__.py'
and just for reference, this was the full result of the attempted install
*/code/weewx-weatherlink-live $* wee_extension --install .
Request to install '.'
