Re: Post your .conkyrc files w/ screenshots
Well, I created a one liner yesterday, my very first 1-liner, and the "screen ruler" really helped. Click on any of the images will take you to Conky Hardcore! and the full story and files.
and the finished product is:
Then, on my way to put it up, I remembered something. And my "first ever Conky one-liner ceased to exist" as it became a two-liner or is that three? TWO!! Definately a 2-liner, there are only 2 lines after TEXT!
And now to create "Weather in a Box!"
Have a nice day folks!!

Hmmm.. "screenruler" apparently wasn't added to the repository for Hardy. Is there anywhere I can download that? I keep finding kruler and I don't want to add KDE dependencies.

Actually that is my NEW everyday conky, I have a "WeatherBox" conky now that pops up when I want the weather and gone when I don't need it. It is a modified version of the weather you see in the shot below
My old conky is:
and I'll miss that for a while, I've always had big heavy duty conkys. to the point I was running 6 at one time, the one above is a combination of those six. It's a "show piece"
The point of conky: It can be what you want it to be, a VW or a Rolls Royce, your choice.
Have a nice day.

Hey Bruce, I noticed that your script contains a line:
echo '${goto 240}'$TOPLINE | sed 's/So/${color red}So${color}/g' | sed 's/Sa/${color orange}Sa${color}/g'
whenever you have consecutive 'sed' calls you can combine them, like so:
echo '${goto 240}'$TOPLINE | sed -e 's/So/${color red}So${color}/g' -e 's/Sa/${color orange}Sa${color}/g'
just a FYI.
CHIMO!

CHIMO!
you can also use a semicolon ;
echo '${goto 240}'$TOPLINE | sed 's/So/${color red}So${color}/g;s/Sa/${color orange}Sa${color}/g'
Of course, when you start using the semicolon to combine it all, debugging can be a bit more tricky. :)

Code:

See what that does.
Hablaremos mañana
Buenos noches.

Hi Bruce.
I've changed that line and didn't notice any change. Conky stays the same way as before. Also change the fixed width font on System-Appearance to see if had some influence but nothing
Gracias de todas formas :)

Hey, thanks guys, I obviously didn't write the script but I'll add the info at CH! (naming names too)
CHIMO! & Thanks.

De nada y que tengas un buen día
