When your .zephyr.desc file contains code of the form:
show
Today, it is @bold($weather) in spain.
endshow
and $weather is set to "<raining>", then what is displayed is
Today, it is <raining>) in spain.
instead of the proper:
Today, it is <raining> in spain.
This bug has been in zwgc for several releases now. A work
around for now is to do the following:
set foo raining
set weather <$foo>
show
Today, it is @bold($weather) in spain.
endshow
Don't ask me why this works. It just does.
