Is there a description of the format of the realtime.txt file?

I can figure out some of the fields, but since it doesn't rain around here much, I assume some of the fields have to do with that, but I don't know which goes to which. I also assume that the fields used are influenced by the setting that the user has chosen for Locale (F instead of C, mm instead of in etc...)

The units are those chosen by the user, but the decimals are always full stops/periods, never commas.

Thanks.

That provides enough realtime data that I can create a cron jobs to collect it once a minute to provide data that can be imported for use with JpGraphs or some other server sided charting program.
