Hi Don,

People, at times, do not know how to define their ideas/requirements or effectively provide a coherent or accurate message, in these technical questions. Placing some "impersonal" pressure on them to provide as we demand, most likely, will produce an effect of discrepancy.
I volunteer my time to help the OP and what I get out of it is my own business. However, I found, in these cases, that providing an approximation of what I think they want, helps the process of identifying the real requirement and proper help, either by me or some else.

NAME
Weather::Com::AirPressure - class containing barometric pressure data SYNOPSIS
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use Weather::Com::Finder; # you have to fill in your ids from weather.com here my $PartnerId = 'somepartnerid'; my $LicenseKey = 'mylicense'; my %weatherargs = ( 'partner_id' => $PartnerId, 'license' => $LicenseKey, ); my $weather_finder = Weather::Com::Finder->new(%weatherargs); my @locations = $weather_finder->find('Heidelberg'); my $currconditions = $locations[0]->current_conditions(); print "Barometric pressure is ", $currconditions->pressure()->pressure(), " "; print "and it's ", $currconditions->pressure()->tendency(), " "; DESCRIPTION
Via Weather::Com::AirPressure one can access the barometric pressure and its tendency. This class will not be updated automatically with each call to one of its methods. You need to call the "pressure()" method of the parent object again to update your object. CONSTRUCTOR
You usually would not construct an object of this class yourself. This is implicitely done when you call the "pressure()" method of one current conditions or forecast object. METHODS
pressure() Returns the barometric pressure. tendency([$language]) Returns the tendency of the barometric pressure. This attribute is dynamic language enabled. AUTHOR
