Converting between wind speeds

Post by bigharps »

A couple of days ago my computer got itself into one of those ever decreasing circles from which it would not recover. I had to switch off the power. Only time in 3 years for this computer.
The problem wasn't Cumulus, but after I restarted, I noticed Cumulus had changed units on most readings. Even all my web setting had disappeared. I seemed to have a default cumulus.ini. I reconfigured the settings and restarted - all good.
Except I had left wind speed at m/s instead of changing it to km/h. :oops:
That's now changed and back to showing km/h.
It's only a couple of days worth. Can I just edit the June logfile, converting the m/s readings to km/h?

Yes; you may also need to edit dayfile.txt.
