Glad you like it :D

The ping is very useful. I know that there is a built-in range test, but sometimes I don't need the test to be on all the time, nor do I want to set the frequency too high. Actually.... This give me an idea, I can simply program a command to turn the range test off/on remotely.

That weather function is nice! The US makes available some nice weather APIs. I have a PinePhone and it has a weather module that relies on a US-based API, but I am not in the US. At least I can find out the weather in Oregon easily. I don't know if there is some similar API in the Netherlands.

Im guessing you were a C/C# dev based on the function names.

I helped re-factor some C++-based micro-controller firmware recently and the original code was not following any convention, so I looked at a list of conventions and decided that 'lower camel case' looked like a nice one to pick. So, I have been developing a habit to stick to that. I do scientific r&d and only sometimes need to do a bit of programming, so I'm not sure if I'd call myself a dev!
