Comment 5 for bug 410104

Try:

python elisa-core/bin/moovida -c weather.config

And to answer your question, the current Moovida framework was designed
to allow multiple frontends but the fact is that no one (to my
knowledge) uses that aspect of the architecture. We basically always use
the pigment frontend...

Anyway, feel free to join us on #elisa @ irc.freenode.net and ask us
more questions. :)
