@ubonetu2,

Looks great. I like those 'basic' conkies. I can't stick with them because I always look at it and think "What else can I put in there?" and the next thing I know, my screen is...

My pleasure. I look forward to seeing the results.:popcorn:

gregor4711,

This is what I've come up with so far. The only issue is when the window/process name has a space in it as you can see with "Web Content".

pid.conf:



conky.config = {
--...

Sorry for the delayed response, I had to leave for awhile. I posted the config above. I'll have to check out the CPU thing. I don't think I've ever checked it with ps, but I will now.

Sorry, here is the config file for that



conky.config = {
-- Use double buffering (eliminates flickering)
double_buffer = true,

-- Run conky in the background
background =...

This is what I've come up with so far. The only thing I don't like about it is that not all of the processes reported by top have a window associated with it.



require 'cairo'
require 'imlib2'...

I'm not having much luck so far. I'm getting syntax errors because of conflicts between bash and lua syntax, but I'll keep trying and post when I come up with something.

I'm going to try writing a lua script to do this. Give me a few minutes to see what I can come up with.

I've got lua scripts parsing hundreds of commands and my cpu is usually at about 4% although I do have most of the commands on 10 or 30 second timers.. I don't know how it would compare though.

I don't know how it could be done in a conky itself. But I'm sure I could do it in a lua script.

I think this may be helpful. It's a bash command and It's a long command, but it returns all pids and window names, then grep and cut to get window title.
I used the Thunar pid of "1351", then use...

I'm not positive, but I think what he wants is the window titles instead of the process name, i.e. Mozilla Firefox instead of firefox or /usr/bin/firefox.

If I understand your question correctly, the only thing I know of is



wmctrl -l


which will list all open windows. Maybe using that with head, tail and cut will give you what you want. I...

Also, for the hard drive temp you can use


hddtemp -n --unit=F /dev/sda

As I just learned.

When I was using the Fahrenheit units I used the Celsius for the meters and Fahrenheit only in the...

Step one:
"We admitted we were powerless over conky, and we love it."

Sorry, I didn't see your last post until after I posted my last one. I've never found that to work with a lua script. What I do is let the script calculate it by doing (for example)



...

alpetjr,


If you want to post the output of



df -H --total

If you are talking about the ringout fonction, that function is also used in the signal meter. If you're not sure if one of the functions is being used you can search for the function name i.e....

That line is right after the variables, at the very beginning of the script. Let me know if that works or not.

alpetjr,
If nothing is coming up on the desktop, and I don't see any errors, did you change the "if desktop==6" to whatever desktop you want it on? I have 8 different workspaces because I'm...

The only thing that requires a drive specification is hddtemp, try commenting out the command and where it's displayed. This line



hddtemp=tonumber(os.capture("hddtemp /dev/sda | cut -d' '...

No worries, it's always nice to learn something else.

If I did, I don't remember doing it, but I don't remember a lot of things nowadays. I'm getting to the age when I'm getting concerned about the hereafter.
I walk into a room and wonder what I'm here...

What's interesting to me is I have been using that command since Ubuntu 12.04, which is when I edited the sudoers file. I just now tried


hddtemp /dev/sda

without sudo in the terminal and got...

Ive got multiple computers because friends keep giving me their old ones when they buy new ones.
They all run Linux, except for 1 I have with Win 10. I use it just to keep up with Windows because I...
