I think most people will only have 4-10 (max) items on the screen at
once.  Who knows, with a slate squeezebox..iSqueezeBox.. whatever. :-)

I changed it, and it's fine.  I think it's just an artifact of example
code.

Right now, it just fetches the current image, but I'm going to make
changes and create a new icon request.  Let me think on this one - make
it fetch all at once (get a table back).  I might use the power of
automatic parameter loading on the plugin side to make it flexible on
the LUA side.

You should be able to look at anything you want - any combo.  I can
easily see creating a row of 3 icons on the bottom for
tonight->tomorrow->next day, or a sidebar of temps for the next few
days.  Heck, maybe get funky and create a graph out of the text data,
but that's a next step. :-)

agreed.

Thanks!
