I am asking myself if there is an easy way to display the number of collected datasets - in terms of WeatherCat called Samples? I am curious about that because I am collecting since March 2008 with WeatherCat and its famous predecessor LWC.
Curious minds... [goofy]

Dear Reinhard and WeatherCat curious types, . . . .
I am asking myself if there is an easy way to display the number of collected datasets - in terms of WeatherCat called Samples? I am curious about that because I am collecting since March 2008 with WeatherCat and its famous predecessor LWC.

I don't know of any way to generate a simple number, but the number of samples is the number of lines in all the data files that have been generated by WeatherCat (and it's predecessor.) I can't think of it off-hand, but there must be some UNIX tools that will return the number of lines in a file. Subtract the comments at the top and sum up for all the files, that would be the total number of samples for the station's operation.
Cheers, Edouard
