> 	http://www.aetherltd.com/communicating.html
> 
> Basic functions:
> 
>    Prints RSS feeds on a Teletype. Reuters is the
> default for news, and any other RSS feed or feeds can
> be used, including Twitter.
> 
>    Weather reports - configure a location and you can print
> the local weather.  Data from the National Weather Service.
> 
>    Sends and receives cell phone text messages. This requires
> a Google Voice account.
> 
>    Works best with KSR machines, because it accepts commands 
> form the Teletype keyboard.  On a RO machine, you can still 
> print news feeds.
> 
> New in version 2.5:
> 
>    ITA2 character set support.  Now supports USTTY (most AT&T 
> and military machines), ITA2 (most WU machines), and 
> FRACTIONS (from the financial services industry).
> 
>    Completely new weather support. The old FTP files from the 
> National Weather Service are being phased out, and are only 
> updated for about half the US at this point.  The new system 
> uses the NWS's new XML service which automatically generate a 
> forecast for most locations in the US.
> 
>    --ryrypat and --alphapat options, which just print RYRY... 
> and ABCD... forever, with a CR LF LTRS LTRS as needed.  
> Useful when installing and adjusting machines.
> 
>    Better error recovery from Internet problems.  Trouble on 
> the Internet side produces a message on the Teletype every 2 
> minutes, accompanied by three bells.
> 
>    Works with Python 2.6 and Python 2.7, and on both Linux 
> and Windows.
