AI-WX Weather is a BBS door created using the latest AI driven development tools. AI-WX takes
advantage of free APIs on the internet to consume the latest up to the minute weather data for any
location on the planet. There are versions for Windows 32 bit, Windows 64 bit, Linux Arm 32 bit,
Linux Arm 64 bit and Linux 64 platforms. Any BBS software that can produce a door32.sys file should
be capable of running the door. Windows platforms require either .Net Framework 4.8.1 for 32 bit
versions, and .Net Core 10 or higher runtimes for 64 bit versions. The door has been tested under
many different BBS systems and OS platforms and hardware. Windows 10, 11, Ubuntu, Slackware, Raspbian
and RPi3-RPi5, x86 PC, Mystic, Synchronet to name a few. 

Live radar that requires only an ANSI terminal is groundbreaking!

Installation Instructions:
The Linux version of the AI-WX Weather Door requires the .Net Core runtime version 9.0
or higher. The archive includes all the .Net Core files needed to run the door. The door also requires
the path to a door32.sys file be passed on the command line using the -D argument. An example is...

./wxdoor -D<path to folder containing door32.sys>

Remember under Linux you must give the wxdoor file execute permissions by running chmod +x wxdoor.

You will also need to edit the lwsdoor.ini file to match your system's requirements. The file is well
commented.
