Hello all conky fans

I have been cleaning up my desktop and finally got rid of the volume and wireless indicator
icons in the top right of my panel.

So, I've been updating my conky to include all that info...

So far it's been easy, but I'm stuck on using ${mixer} and ${mixerbar}
I've been reading a lot this morning and don't know what I'm missing.

I just want the default master mixer volume # and a simple bar.
I get a '0' and a empty bar that doens't repsond to changes in volumes, although
the sound gui does show a change when I press the short cut keys.



thank you,
wbg

Well, i have some issues-if i add these lines after ${execpi 600
everything in my conky is dead/invisible after cal line. Other then that-there are only Mo and TU colored, but not the other days (neither current day) ?

Run this in the terminal and paste the output:

cal -m | sed '1d' | sed '/^ *$/d' | sed -r '0,/./s/^(.{0})(.{5})/\1${color red}\2${color}/' | sed 's/\<'"$(date +%-d)"'\>/${color white}&${color}/'

mini@mini:~$ cal -m | sed '1d' | sed '/^ *$/d' | sed -r '0,/./s/^(.{0})(.{5})/\1${color red}\2${color}/' | sed 's/\<'"$(date +%-d)"'\>/${color white}&${color}/'
${color red}Mo Di${color} Mi Do Fr Sa So
 1  2  3  4  5  6  7
 8  9 10 11 12 13 14
15 16 17 18 19 20 21
22 23 24 25 26 27 ${color white}28${color}
29 30 31

See if this is closer to what you're looking for:

cal -m | sed '1d' | sed '/^ *$/d' | sed -r '1,8s/^(.{15})(.{5})/\1${color red}\2${color}/' | sed 's/\<'"$(date +%-d)"'\>/${color white}&${color}/'

Submitted to Sec as its more for people with that type of interest.

However incase people find the use of color (colour!) helpful

Actually this is what i have. Only need to change days names colors (not the dates...) And after calendar my other stuff in conky are dead-have nothing after calendar...

Could you post what do i have to add in conky (${execpi 600... and till the end)?

To color just the day names:

${execpi 3600 cal -m | sed '1d' | sed '/^ *$/d' | sed -r '0,/./s/^(.{15})(.{5})/\1${color red}\2${color}/' | sed 's/\<'"$(date +%-d)"'\>/${color white}&${color}/'}

I'm not sure why conky would not display anything after the calendar, though.

Now it is better-it does not crush conky. Still, can i have all names colored, not only weekend?
And second: how to align it to center (see pict)?

Thanks

If that doesn't properly center the calendar, change the alignc to goto 100 and adjust the number from there.

Thanks a lot. That did it.

Just don´t understand those lines and where to put colors and other stuff. Once again, thanks a lot.
