Also my weather.sh, conkyweather, and weather.xslt files are in there, and a cheat sheet that has my xoap registration info so I don't forget.
In ~.kde/Autostart is this very elegant script:
That's it. I installed the latest .deb packages of conkyforecast and conkyemail, and conky and feh from the repo, and voila!
