- Ensure dew point is still calculated when humidity is 100%
I think there's another fix in this build, but I can't remember what it was.

Build 871 available:
http://www.nybbles.co.uk/downloads/beta ... sSetup.exe
- Allow custom forecast strings (for forecasts generated by Cumulus)
Instructions for use:
In the folder where you installed Cumulus, you will find a file called 'samplestrings.ini'. Take a copy of this, leave it in the Cumulus installation folder, and name it 'strings.ini'. The file contains the strings used for the forecasts, e.g.:
Edit the string as desired, e.g.:
or even:
I might be persuaded to extend this facility to allow other aspects of Cumulus to be customised/translated

Re: Cumulus 1.8.8 beta available
Build 874 available:
http://www.nybbles.co.uk/downloads/beta ... sSetup.exe
- Truncate custom tweets at 140 characters
- Allow thickness of chart legend symbols to be configured (see Display settings)
- Added 'max wind speed' option for La Crosse (via cumulus.ini setting)
- Select-A-Graph now has gust as well as peak gust
To use the cumulus.ini setting for the La Crosse max wind speed add to the [station] section
LCMaxWind=X
where X is the maximum (uncalibrated) wind speed you want to allow. The value you supply should be in metres/second, regardless of what wind unit you are using in Cumulus.

Re: Cumulus 1.8.8 beta available
The Beaufort descriptions are also configurable now via strings.ini, I think that's probably new in this build (874) too...

Build 875 available:
http://www.nybbles.co.uk/downloads/beta ... sSetup.exe
I thought I would add one more set of strings to strings.ini before I make the beta into the main release version. The pressure/temperature trend strings are now configurable (see samplestrings.ini).

Re: Cumulus 1.8.8 beta available
There was an error with missing spaces in the default values of some of the trend strings in build 875. I've fixed this and uploaded a new version, but it came out with the same build number. So, if you downloaded build 875 before about 20:00 UTC, you may want to grab it again.
