awesome wm and tools

I am using awesome 3 wm on 64 bit archlinux. I am looking for a battery monitor like volwheel which resides in the system tray. I want to change the default clock format of awesome as it shows UNIX time. please help me out with these issues.

I also want to know how i can set key combinations to execute a command.

awful.hooks.timer.register(1, function ()
    -- For unix time_t lovers
    --mytextbox.text = " " .. os.time() .. " time_t "
    -- Otherwise use:
     mytextbox.text = " " .. os.date("%r %A %b %d") .. " "
end)

just read through rc.lua for changing keys.

Thanks u_no_hu for the clock settings. Is there a battery sys tray applet.

I want to know how to change the mouse cursor theme in awesome. Also is there a light weight smb client.

ivantomica, please don't necro-bump threads. It clogs up the "New" list with threads that have likely already been solved or long-since abandoned.

Indeed. Closing.
