I first saw TheAxeR's python script here and was playing around with that for awhile. I am not a great python programmer, so I wrote up a perl script to interact with RTM, and I include lots of options. If you are more comfortable with python, by all means use TheAxeR's script. This is just an alternative.
Run the script with no arguments to see options.
NAME
conkyRTM.pl
SYNOPSIS
conkyRTM.pl -u USER -p PASSWORD
DESCRIPTION
Perl script to output a user's RTM tasks to Conky
To use this in Conky, put something like this in your .conkyrc:
${execpi 3600 perl /path/to/conkyRTM.pl -u USER -p PASS [options]}

strange...
imho you can omit the whole user/password thing.
linux already knows how to handle different user accounts
and passing the RTM-pw on the command line makes it useless, since anybody using your 'real' account can read ~/.${SHELL}_history and ~/.conkyrc
(yeah, i know its just a port from someone else's script, but why not improve things?)

I understand your point here... What would be some other ways of getting the username and password, though?

well my first post is incredibly stupid as i didnt know what rememberthemilk is (i thought it was just a local thing)
you can leave the pw stuff as it is or store it in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/rtm
(or something)
