Show us your conky

If someone, like me, has been failing for a long time due to this error message from @mpeachy's allcombined.lua script...

conky: llua_do_call: function conky_gradbar execution failed: allcombined.lua:19: attempt to call a nil value (global 'loadstring')

The solution is that with lua5.2 the loadstring was changed to load.
So, look for it and change it.

unklar I'm sure mrpeachy would be very proud of you.
It's nice to know his scripts still live on.

RIP mrpeachy

Nice one PackRat.

Ok, saw this and immediately started drooling... lolz

Where did you see it? Ask for the conkys.

Then comes the tweaking!

Thanks for sharing.
Currently I don't have a sway installation. That's why I had to massively 'mangle' the configuration here on labwc.

I'm not sure what you mean.
I don't know the font of the logo.
It's not "labwcmoon.ttf" as you can see from this comparison.

I generally get something like this from sites like this when I browse.

“meska-conky” for BL-Carbon (adapted from the Arch Linux forum with calendar, weather, and moon)
Now includes:

- Calendar (cal.lua) (if you prefer the week to start on Sunday = change line 32 accordingly)

- @maren's tad-script (shows only today and the next 3 days). Please copy to ~/. Change your city in the script.

- Moongiant_conky_script (with configurations by @Sector11, @TBG, and me). Copy the directory to ~/.conky

- meska-conky (with the FiraMono / neuropolitical fonts and the cal.lua / draw-bg.lua scripts). Also copy to ~/.conky and make the system “aware” of the fonts.

If you're running BL with picom, you can leave the conkyrc as is. If you're not using picom, you'll need to adjust the conkyrc configuration accordingly using draw-bg.lua.
