Nice I have a "few" more to look forward to.

Yea, "hwmon" is a big OOPS! in that respect and to the best of my knowledge "platform" doesn't work with Intel and ${exec(pi)}, bash script or not, is not minimal.

UPDATE - And I see while typing this you posted the Tao conky. How nice of you, Thank you.

Have a great day!

Tao Te Ching conky set to a key binding.

If you dont mind me asking how do you do that conky with the Tao? I would like to do something similar but have a different medium, id like to do something with poetry in mind?

Nevermind im having a shocker with reading threads tonight. You answered a few posts up.

^ Steve ... you and I are going to get along just fine. We do the same things. ]:D

Also I like how you edited your post. Being open about an OOPS! is ... well ... being open.

I think the HowTo for the Tao conky is gone

Yea I think it is gone. I could only find two references to "taoread", from your bash script, by searching your posts:

Using a LUA script: here and another reference where you mentioned the tao-te-ching-the-book-of-the-way that has a broken link.

Broken because: crunchbanglinux.org changed to crunchbang.org therefore changing the internal links.
CRUNCH!! BANG!! BOOM!! SNAP!! CRACKLE!! POP!! went the link.

So a really big thank you for re-posting it here.

Looks like that command takes into account both monitors:

~$ xdpyinfo | sed -n -r "s/^\s*dimensions:.*\s([0-9]+x[0-9]+).*/\1/p"
3046x1050

Actual monitors are 1680x1050 and 1366x768

Sector11 · 2017-04-29 03:33:47

^ But I only have one monitor ...

 29 Apr 17 @ 00:31:13 ~
  $ xdpyinfo | sed -n -r "s/^\s*dimensions:.*\s([0-9]+x[0-9]+).*/\1/p"
1920x1080
 
 29 Apr 17 @ 00:31:19 ~
  $ xdpyinfo | sed -n -r "s/^\s*dimensions:.*\s([0-9]+x[0-9]+).*/\1/p"
1920x1080

... so I did it twice. O:)

But really, that a nice side affect.

Always liked your "Tao" conky, I've read quite a few.
How many are there?
There are 81 entries in The Book of the Way - at least in the translation I'm using.
I still have conkies with the CPU temps set up with key bindings, but on these intel chips the hwmon method doesn't always work - especially after a kernel upgrade. On a rolling release like Void that's sort of inconvenient. My options were to go back to using a bash script with awk to get the temps, or just take them out and go minimal.

This sounds very interesting to me. You may already have in the past, but would you mind sharing it with us (again)?

EDIT: I have a brain disorder. Major derpage. It's a few posts up.

Thanks for sharing it, this is awesome.

not sure if there's a problem?
maybe

xwininfo -root|grep geometry

would work better?
(i, too, only have 1 monitor so i'm just guessing)

Sector11 · 2017-04-29 13:11:05

OK, before people start thinking that I posted or worse created this line:

${exec xdpyinfo | sed -n -r "s/^\s*dimensions:.*\s([0-9]+x[0-9]+).*/\1/p"}

I was simply telling unklar that I liked that line from the antiX conky he posted.

Six for one, half a dozen to the other as which you want to use I guess:

xdpyinfo - display information utility for X
xwininfo - window information utility for X

Like ohnonot I can not test "dual monitor setup" as I have a single monitor

There is also:

 29 Apr 17 @ 09:53:09 ~
  $ xwininfo -root |egrep 'Width:|Height:'
  Width: 1920
  Height: 1080

 29 Apr 17 @ 09:59:49 ~
  $ xprop -root | grep _NET_DESKTOP_GEOMETRY -m 1
_NET_DESKTOP_GEOMETRY(CARDINAL) = 1920, 1080

No since that shows the names of my desktops as well, that might do dual - triple monitors.

 29 Apr 17 @ 10:01:16 ~
  $ xprop -root | grep _NET_DESKTOP_NAMES -m 1
_NET_DESKTOP_NAMES(UTF8_STRING) = "SR-71", "SR-72", "SR-73", "SR-74", "SR-75"

It has a ton of stuff to grab run just xprop - click on a conky:

 29 Apr 17 @ 10:05:55 ~

^ yeah i'm not sure why miharkula's comment popped up there, and what the context was, just thought i'd mention it...
actually i've been using this snippet:

"$(xrandr|sed -n '/.*\*.*/p')"

in some scripts but i don't think it would work well for dual monitors, either.
just adding to the trove: "more than one way to skin a cat"

Sector11 · 2017-04-29 20:51:44

^ He quoted my post that was in reference to the AntiX conky unklar posted.
I'm just making sure that people don't think I created that gem.

Nice but it adds the 60.00*+ in there as well

  $ xrandr|sed -n '/.*\*.*/p'
   1920x1080     60.00*+

And along the lines of skinning a cat ... as I like to say "Linux: 1001 Ways to Do the Same Thing!"

ohnonot · 2017-04-30 07:09:33

^ i don't use oneliners so much.
inside my script it actually continues like this:

screenres="$(xrandr|sed -n '/.*\*.*/p')"
screenwidth="${screenres%%x*}"
screenres="${screenres#*x}"
screenheight="${screenres%% *}"
unset screenres

i like to use bash builtins as much as possible.

BLizgreat! · 2017-04-30 11:17:07

Please don't say conky, dammit, now I said it !

Ah what's the use, installed conky a lil bit ago. Might be back to post summin here. In like 4 friggin days !

Conky flashbacks, if I can just move this thing 127.5 nanometers to the left and .35px up, it'll be perfect.

@BLizgreat!
{you are dreaming of "the one-conky to rule all conkys" - The Blitz Conky}

sudo apt-get install bliz_align

and then:

${execi 3600 bliz_align 127.2 -upx .35}${next command}

bliz_align defaults to: nanometers moved to the right
Command line options are:
-l = left
-r = right (default)
-u = up
-d = down
--- combined with ---
-px = pixels
-pi = picas
-po = points
-pe = percentage
-in = inches
-cm = centimeters
-nm = nanometers (default)
-rnm is the default and does not require being on the command line.

]:D ]:D ]:D ]:D

=== do not take seriously ===
My point is: If screenruler can have those bottom options, why not conky?
Or at least:

${align -r20} ${align -l20} ${align -u20} ${align -d20} -> replaces ${goto}
${align -or20} ${align -ol20} ${align -ou20} ${align -od20} -> replaces ${(v)offset}

One, existing, command ${alignc|r} - modified: gets rid of ${offset} ${voffset} & ${goto}

O:)

Hello,
If you are interested in this conky, find other configurations on this blog:
https://bitbucket.org/plikhari/conkywx_pub/wiki/Home

http://foreverquest.blogspot.it/
And arch linux repo and is called conkywx
best regards

OH MY! That looks really interesting.
Unfortunately the .deb file is an Ubuntu build, but I grabbed the StandAlone version (conkywx_6.0.0_sa.tar.xz) to have a look at.

Very nice indeed. Thank you.

Many Thanks!

I should try again ... conkywx that was in March 2015

My last attempts under arch-linux failed, because I simply did not manage with conky V1.10.

I hope this helps with the change of syntax on conky v1.10+

https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky/wi … -Variables
https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky/bl … conky.conf

and my blog;

running this conky.conf on Ubuntu and Void linux - no errors.

FOR ANYONE RUNNING CONKY v1.10+
Debian Stretch conky = v1.10.6-1
Parrot conky rev#1 conky v1.10+

Awesome - I do like that conky.
And those links are priceless. Thank you!

Another thing for Conky v1.10 - it comes with "convert.lua" that does a fairly decent conversion of conky v1.9 to v1.10. I copied it to /media/5/Conky/convert-lua/convert.lua
From the file:

#! /usr/bin/lua

local usage = [[
Usage: convert.lua old_conkyrc [new_conkyrc]

Tries to convert conkyrc from the old v1.x format to the new, lua-based format.

Keep in mind that there is no guarantee that the output will work correctly
with conky, or that it will be able to convert every conkyrc. However, it
should provide a good starting point.

Altough you can use this script with only 1 arg and let it overwrite the old
config, it's suggested to use 2 args so that the new config is written in a new
file (so that you have backup if something went wrong).

For more information about the new format, read the wiki page
<http://wiki.conky.be/index.php?title=conky2rc_format>
]];

And if I may, a suggestion to help the script:
- - Strip all non-essential lines out of the old conky before converting.

Also; bash does not understand:

  $ convert.lua old.test.conky test.10.conky

therefore tell it you are using lua:

  $ lua convert.lua old.test.conky test.10.conky

That command gave me: test.10.conky

Works quit well of the less complicated conkys.

NOTE:
Conky v1.9 command ${pre_exec} does not exist in v1.10

Use: ${execi xxxx} a LARGE number - I use 86400 (1 day)

Example from above conky:

${color3}${alignc}${pre_exec disp=${DISPLAY#:}; {blah blah}

change to:

${color3}${alignc}${execi 86400 disp=${DISPLAY#:}; {blah blah}

It's not like my screen size is going to change every 15 minutes.

Thank you mrneilypops
