Hi,
I tried it out tonight for the first time and I had the same question about the degrees symbol.
It seems like bad programming to force a user to enter a symbol that is not available on most keyboads.
Also I found a bug that when I entered my location by editing the location that was there by default and accidently erased the degrees character, it got into an infinate loop showing a format error message.
I had to ctrl/alt/del to quit the program.
Although I managed to get the program working, I really didn't know what I was doing.
It may be an easy to use program for the programmer but without any kind of documention I found it confusing.
I had to stop when high clouds rolled in.
I will try to give it another go when the weather improves but at the moment I don't think I would buy it.
A 4 out of 10 from me so far I'm afraid.
Cheers,
Luke
