Hi @dizcza , Thanks for your interest in PyGPSClient - glad you're finding it useful. To answer your questions in order:

env var, if set, as an alternative to themqapikey
file?Also, is there a way to show the data in Google Maps? The current map is non-interactive: I need to wait a minute before a new zoom is applied to the map...
Thanks.
