Ok, latest script:   
      
   int main() {   
   char g;   
   char x;   
   char i;   
   printf("\e[0;37;0m\e[1;1H\e[2J\e[1;1H");   
   //above is the cls   
   g=system(sprintf("/usr/bin/curl wttr.in/ithaca -O"),1,0); x=syst   
   m(sprintf("awk '$2 !~ /^sa/ && $1 < 8' ithaca > /home/bbbs/shortith"),1, 0);   
   i=system(sprintf("/home/bbbs/shortith"),1,0);   
   getch();   
   return(i);   
   }   
      
   I must have to escape something in last sprintf line, that's all I can   
   figure.. again, ithaca is created.. but not shortith.   
      
   This is what shortith should look like:   
      
   cat shortith   
      
     _`/"".-.     Light Snow   
      ,\_(   ).   21 - 28 °F   
       /(___(__)  ? 8 mph   
         *  *  *  9 mi   
        *  *  *   0.0 in   
      
   The ? is a weird arrow, actually.
