        Hi, I’m using the httpget feature to make a request from wttr.in to get a small weather display on desktopinfo. It works almost perfectly except for the temperature display. When desktopinfo displays the degree symbol from wttr.in there is a ““ character that immediately precedes it. I understand this is an encoding issue but I’m not quite sure how to resolve it.
        The line I’m using for it in my .ini is:

        HTTPGET=interval:3600,text:weather,source:http://wttr.in/?format=%C+%p+%t

        If you know of how I might remove that character I’d be so grateful, I enjoy your program so much, thanks!

          Looks like it’s not correctly decoding UTF-8 content. I’ll have that fixed in the next release. I don’t know of any workaround in the meantime.
