+  Yahoo Weather Forecast parser
+ 
+ http://developer.yahoo.com/weather/
+ This sketch demonstrate how to use the Linux command line tools
+ to parse a simple XML file on the Arduino Yún.
+ 
+ First thing download the XML file from the Yahoo Weather service 
+ than use "grep" and "cut" to extract the data you want.
+ 
+ To find  the location ID of your location, browse or search for your 
+ city from the Weather home page. The location ID is in the URL for 
+ the forecast page for that city.
