Thanks to both of you for your replies.
- since.py etc are in /usr/share/weewx/user already so indeed I can try and
use them. I tried to directly use since in the format line of
weewx-mastodon, but haven't succeeded yet:
`{since($hour=24).rain.sum:%.3f}` , `{since(hour=24).rain.sum:%.3f}`... not
sure I can do it like that.
- I'll look in the template file.
- final option is that I directly tweak wxtoot.py ...
I'll investigate and post back if I have a question... or with my solution
if I succeed :)
