w3m is a great little terminal web browser, as it's easy to compile on nearly any OS and has some great features.
For my scripts, I usually try to auto-detect the presence of lynx, links, w3m, and chawan, but for my shell alias, I just picked w3m, which I have installed everywhere. 😄

I even enjoy fedimeteo from the command line! ;)
alias fedimeteo='w3m -dump "https://us.fedimeteo.com/{{city}}__texas/" |tr "\n" ^ |sed "s/━━*/\n/g" |head -1 |tr ^ "\n" |sed -n "/^Weather for {{City}}/,/^#{{City}}/p"'
rld@Intrepid:~$ fedimeteo |head
Weather for {{City}}, Texas 🌕
Current temperature (at 05:42): 39.6°F (Partly cloudy)

Air Quality:

Small shell function to copy last line in shell history to clipboard:
# Copy last command from shell history into clipboard
function cl() {
fc -ln | tail -1 | tr --delete "\n" | xclip -selection clipboard
}
Mega useful when you have multiple terminals open, or you want to paste it into documentation.
