[SOLVED] Help with a conky variable (ID10T Error: Read man pages)

Here's an easy one:

lsb_release

I can't find any documentation for this.

So the question is: What does it do and what are it's switches?

On a side note: Do we have a conky thread? I saw the weather one, but I figured that was for weather and not general conky.

The meaning of life is to just be alive. It is so plain and so obvious
    and so simple. And yet everybody rushes aroound in a great panic
             as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves.

I figured it was a conky variable because when I type lsb_release in my terminal it says: No LSB release modules are available.

I'm checking here: https://wiki.debian.org/LSB

Not that it matters but Debian have recently given up on the LSB.

general questions go in their own thread in: Index » GUI & Applications
