EXAMPLES

       wmSun -lon 106.3 -lat 35.9
              this would display rise/set times at Los Alamos in local time.

       wmSun -lat 19.58 -lon 155.92 -td 10
              this  would display rise/set times in Kona, Hawaii in local time
              (in winter -- you need to take into account daylight savings  at
              other times of the year).
