Thanks! I'm not a coder or anything and this was the first thing I ever did
in Python. It started out just outputting the data like a list, and then I
just started adding onto it, making that template for it, etc. I originally
wrote it for DayDream BBS, but I re-did it and started using mystic's MCI
codes rather than ANSI positioning.
I run the script as a door from the BBS, or it could be a timed event, and it
just generates a text file which is then displayed to the user.
The module that does the heavy lifting is xmltodict, which I'm told is very
similar to JSON. I use it for some other stuff like a Top 10 Box Office listing,
and I had a Summits on the Air spot lister once upon a time also.
You're free to use whatever you like. I was basically just riffing off the solar
widgets from hamqsl. I actually sent him a screenshot of it in action
and he loved it.

Good luck with it! Let me know if you want to see the Python and I'll try to
figure out a way to make it available. I never really released anything
because my code is so bad I didn't want to get ridiculed for it, heheh.
In the meantime, I hope this solar flux index goes back up. I can't make any
magic happen on the airwaves...
