I think it's time that I share my conky config. It's nowhere near finished, but I think it's getting there. I'm looking for a better monospaced font to use though (I'm using ProggyTiny right now, http://proggyfonts.com/).

Config: http://jwcxz.com/f/09-05-27.conkyrc
There are basically four external scripts at work. Two are for Amarok: if it is running, as.py displays the current track title, album, and artist (retrieved via DBUS) and ap.py displays a progress bar for the track. The other two are for the weather. Every 15 minutes (as directed by cron), a Python script retrieves weather data from weather.com and stores it to a temporary text file. Then, conky periodically invokes a shell script to grab parts of that text file and format them. This saves me from having to access the web more than once every 15 minutes.

Here's mine. It's pretty basic really, no fancy scripts. It still took me forever tweaking it to match my desktop, especially the way I set up the mpd info. Was a lot of frustrating trial and error.
Full screen shot here, Is at 1680 x 1050. or just the conky part linked to the pic.
My config is confusing with the alternating color codes. It frazzles my brain every time I go to change something.:rolleyes:

Thanks!
I cannot seem to find the PizzaDude font
I can't remember for sure where I got it from but I think this was one of the sites I tried on searching: http://www.fonts4free.net/pizzadude-bullets-font.html and http://www.fonts4free.net/openlogos-font.html and finally http://www.fontage.com/pages/pie4mp.html
Have fun!

Heh.. the conky is just modified from the posts above me
So i wont take any credit for that
But yes, its nice to have a quad core
Im planning to add 2 more gigs of RAM to it
I get away with 2GB on my dual core, but I can see a 4core would need 4GB at least to really fly and run lots of apps.
Damn, I want a new road pushy, dual head screen, and 4 core system... Guess I want too many toys to get them all soon :-)

Hello!
To show Consonance (lightweight music manager) information in conky, I wrote the following script:
#!/bin/bash
while getopts "a?i?t?" Option; do
case $Option in
a )
ALBUM=`consonance -c | grep album`
echo "${ALBUM:7}"
;;
i )
INTERPRET=`consonance -c | grep artist`
echo "${INTERPRET:8}"
;;
t )
TITLE=`consonance -c | grep title`
echo "${TITLE:7}"
;;
* )
echo "Illegal option detected. [ERROR]"
exit 1
;;
esac
done
shift $(($OPTIND - 1))Since Consonance currently only supports getting all information at once, and since string manipulation in bash is anything but funny, the script is pretty crappy at the moment - feel free to improve it!
The according part in your conkyrc looks like this:
${if_running consonance}${color #98c2c7}${font}CONSONANCE ${color0}${hr}
${font Rock Star 2.0:size=20}T${font}${alignc}${execi 5 ~/consonanceinfo.sh -i}
${font Rock Star 2.0:size=20}Y${font}${alignc}${execi 5 ~/consonanceinfo.sh -t}
${font Rock Star 2.0:size=20}K${font}${alignc}${execi 5 ~/consonanceinfo.sh -a}${endif}You can find the Rock Star font here (direct link).
Here's the result:

Hey, can you share the desktop info script (in shell w/Arch logo in ASCII)? I have one that is quite outdated, that one looks far nicer, much appreciated if you can, thanks ![]()

Can someone help to use cut to display only the current and next month with cal?
${color3}${exec cal -3 -m}Offline
pre_exec cal -3 | cut -c23-64
use theh pre so it only runs once.
