A bitcoin and altcoin watching conky!
Its simple looking, but effective. but it uses lots of scripts :/ . I found the "time and date" conky somewhere on deviant art i think, and just modified it a bit.

You can browse the code that pulls info from btc and cryptsy at http://www.github.com/xdaimon/xdaimonConky
Also a couple other pics of this same conky with slightly different settings http://xdaimon.imgur.com/all/
If anybody has any suggestions or improvements let me know :)

Awesome WM.
This might be in the wrong thread. I don't imagine Ubuntu would be proud of AWM.
Still a WIP very much.

Thanks to mrpeachy - my latest wunderground lua weather script:
Here's the conky under re-development
(I never leave well enough alone):
http://s20.postimg.org/tk1n1e3rd/201...0_Sector11.jpg
- Note the ñ as a place holder for outputs that could be longer than they are,
- I also dropped the metric ending for temperatures in favour of a simple ° as I know my conky uses °C
- Oh ... and I removed the snow stuff - only three times since 1919 - I'm not worried!
And here it is all cleaned upmrpeachy - very impressive script ... Thank you.
and back in it's "box"

It has been a week since I've sat down at my computer; what was I doing again??? Oh, yeah... Teo's weather script.
You both are welcome and thank you for doing the leg work on that, I will try to test his updates this weekend. I noticed the previous weather script stopped with a segmentation fault sometime throughout the week (could be due to my non-standard installation of Conky, or my edits to the 1b2 weather script, or combination of both), however amazingly my main Conky is still running after a week+ of constant running.
@ Petro Dawg
Leg work was nothing - getting worried about you though.
Life - it gets in the way of all the fun stuff.
Glad to see you're still with us. :)
This thread has been super helpful in tweking conky just how I want it. Here’s my setup. I have three .conkyrc files so I can tweak the position of each group. Plus the semi transparet background is only needed on the middle section.

Any way you could make it veritcal, kindsa like this.Attachment 249481
Already in the works to make one similar to my current (now old) v9000 script. http://s20.postimg.org/aifc5eoax/201...7_Sector11.jpg <- click for the whole thing.
However you could always grab the script, WUN - in my signature, and give it a try.
