    Here is my current conkyrc file:

    show_graph_range no
    text_buffer_size 8096
    
    TEXT
    ${execi 300 gcalcli --nc --cals=owner calw 4}
    Note: When I run Conky, I get the following output in my terminal:

    Code:
    Conky: desktop window (e00003) is subwindow of root window (dc)
    Conky: window type - override

    Much thanks!

    I tried to run gcalcli today and was met with the same error you had "unicode is not supported"

    I ran this in terminal

    Code:
    gcalcli --nc --user "my user name" --pw "my password" calw 2
    and got this...

    Code:
    +----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+----------+

    So perhaps gcalcli isn't supported anymore. It seems to be a pretty old program, most of the documentation I found for it was from 2008. I suspect google calendar has changed format too much for gcalcli to read now. Can anyone confirm if gcalcli is alive or dead?

    Scripts been around a while. Not my idea.

    Okay, I've finally got it perfect! Until I decide to faff about with it again. Probably in a few hours...

    Now to do something about that mess down the bottom.



    Here's my conkyrc for anyone interested:

    If you can't be bothered writing coherently, I can't be bothered reading your post.

    I ran into SSL issues with version 2.1 which is in the repository. I looked about and found that people were having multiple issues with 2.1 so I downloaded 2.2 from the gcalcli site (https://github.com/insanum/gcalcli) and the SSL works now. That may solve the Unicode issue as well.

    Personally though, I prefer Kaivalagi's Conky Google Calendar script.
    Thank you,

    For what it is worth, I wrote a script that will find the PID of a particular conky, then kill it.

    I'm sure this could be done more efficiently. But this works on my system.

    Code:
    #!/bin/bash
    ##This is something like the 5th script I've ever written ##                      
    var1=$(ps xu | grep calendar-conky | grep -v grep | awk '{ print $2 }')
    echo "$var1"
    kill $var1
    Change calendar-conky to the name of your conkyrc file.
    Then, make a launcher, put it in a quick list or whatever.
    Thank you,

    DUDE!!!! Put your name on that one:

    Code:
    #!/bin/bash
    ##This is something like the 5th script I've ever written ##
    ## Written by the GrouchyGaijin - Jan 2013 ##
    var1=$(ps xu | grep calendar-conky | grep -v grep | awk '{ print $2 }')
    echo "$var1"
    kill $var1
    There has to be a way to use a variable, ie:

    Code:
    ggkfc conkyname
    maybe:
    Code:
    #!/bin/bash
    ##This is something like the 5th script I've ever written ##
    ## Written by the GrouchyGaijin - Jan 2013
    var1=$(ps xu | grep $1 | grep -v grep | awk '{ print $2 }')
    echo "$var1"
    kill $var1
    I gotta try this.
    Nice stuff GrouchyGaijin

    Awesome!!

    Using the variable $1 it works for any conky:

    Code:
    ggkfc S11_email.conky
    I call it GrouchyGaijinKentuckyFriedConky

    Awesome and I mean AWESOME!!

    Why not use?
    Code:
    pkill -f "conky.*-c.*calendar-conky"
    That will kill conky process running with the "calendar-conky" .conkyrc.
    It should also not kill certain text editors if you have your .conkyrc open in them.
