What about now?

Yea that would probably work BUT with one OOPS! it's means each conky would be using the same set of images or the font.

No, the way you had it was best ... set to "pause" all conkys - that a user can comment out if they want.

NO WAIT: Your right that would work, each conky calls the script with different options. ...

Oooooooooo this looks good!

I knew it was overkill.

I corrected the post above (the one with the experimental script).

Waiting for feedback.

conky_launch="wmctrl -s 3 && conky -q -c /media/5/Conky/S12/S12_time_tm.conky"
conky_launch2="wmctrl -s 2 && conky -q -c /media/5/Conky/The_Clock_3-9day_2.conky"
conky_launch3="wmctrl -s 0 && conky -q -c $HOME/1_accuweather/S11_accu_tm_BAR.conky"
conky_launch4="wmctrl -s 0 && conky -q -c $HOME/1_accuweather/S11_accu_bm_BAR.conky"
.
.
.
.
pkill -xf "$conky_launch" --signal STOP
#If this script is used by more than one conkyrc files, use the conky_launch2, conky_launch3, etc. variables
pkill -xf "$conky_launch2" --signal STOP
pkill -xf "$conky_launch3" --signal STOP
pkill -xf "$conky_launch4" --signal STOP

If that part works ... it would be great.

IE:
/media/5/Conky/S12/S12_time_tm.conky could have:

TEXT
${execi 900 bash $HOME/1_accuweather/1_accuweather -f2016 -h2016}\

next: /media/5/Conky/The_Clock_3-9day_2.conky

TEXT
${execi 900 bash $HOME/1_accuweather/1_accuweather -f2015 -h2015}\

and the two: $HOME/1_accuweather/S11_accu_tm_BAR.conky and $HOME/1_accuweather/S11_accu_bm_BAR.conky would only read the data files and use the weatherfont.

Same thing for the 16 hour conky, since the images are there it can be set to use the existing images and data. That's a conky I call without the "undecorated" option so read and [x] to close.

How's that? up one.

TeoBigusGeekus · 2016-09-19 17:53:13

conky_launch="conky -q -c /media/5/Conky/S12/S12_time_tm.conky"
conky_launch2="conky -q -c /media/5/Conky/The_Clock_3-9day_2.conky"
conky_launch3="conky -q -c $HOME/1_accuweather/S11_accu_tm_BAR.conky"
conky_launch4="conky -q -c $HOME/1_accuweather/S11_accu_bm_BAR.conky"

Better delete the wmctrl part from the variables.

Isn't this procedure a bit confusing for the average user though?

EDIT:
Also, change all the pkill instances, not just the one I used as an example.

Average - define average. hahahaha

YES it would be a LOT confusing for many. I was hoping for an easier way.
Not going to happen.

Make it simple ... as per your original idea - the script pauses all conkys. And I'll do what I always do, comment out those lines.

TeoBigusGeekus · 2016-09-19 18:03:50

I just had an idea.

The script, as it is written, allows either the 2015 or the 2016 images to be used, ie. you can't have both.

If you gave

./1_accuweather -f2015 -f2016

it would use the 2016 images only.

Would a modification of the script, so that the above command uses both the 2015 and 2016 images, be welcome?

Never mind unklar, test it when you can.

Sector11 · 2016-09-19 18:26:51

You read my mind. It's only 22 images.

TeoBigusGeekus · 2016-09-19 18:29:28

Wait for it.

Sector11 · 2016-09-19 18:39:24

The fish will come ... the fish will come ... ]:D

Teo gets the first one!

... or maybe not.

I will test for you
Be safe.

Teos new Accuweather script:

One Script to rule them all, One script to find them; One script to bring them all and in the conky bind them.

a mis-quote from LOTR

TeoBigusGeekus · 2016-09-19 19:41:38

DELETED

In favour of this post where the script has been updated yet again.

OH YEA! TEO! YOU ROCK!

I called for the accuweather data in one conky, my wife's, see the two lines in medit. That conky gets called first ... and then used the data in three more accuweather conkys. YEA with no calls to the net.

All the sub-dirs populated properly!

Time to do some serious playing! THANK YOU!

TeoBigusGeekus · 2016-09-19 20:42:57

You're welcome buddy, good night.

Sector11 · 2016-09-19 20:47:18

Oh right, time difference - night Teo .. pleasant dreams.

Tomorrow I'll start building a new "companion" conky or conkys as required.

Hello

Théo you are going to think that I abuse but it would be possible to you to put the hours of

the sun-rise sunset and the moon-rise and moon-set in the format 24 hours

Thank's in advance.

Is there such an option in Accuweather's page?
Can't find any.
