Yeah!

...ncal -bhM...

I would never have been there! A true Conky-Master! O:)

Thank you so much!

Sector11 · 2016-11-02 21:50:16

But 'ncal -M' isn't conky, it's from "man ncal", not to be confused with Mann, which we both are.

You're welcome. Greetings to all.

Horizontal Calendar

In the Screenshot thread, I made reference to:

but saved by mobilediesel's conky calendar.

Looks like I was wrong.

mobilediesel's calendar, which is already here, is horizontal or vertical and with the "lang" file multi-lingual. It also has a fixed width; 31 days - filling in what is necessary depending on the length of a month.

Nice to see a new script on the block. Grabbing that now. Thanks for sharing ututo!

NOTE: I keep saying mobilediesel, but really it's by "ans" - just heavily tweaked by mobilediesel.

Ooooooooooooo I found a few old ones here that I had never really looked at played with until yesterday.

This is a really nice LUA "flipclock". The original has hours 1 to 12 AM/PM and minutes, so it only has two "flippers"
Being a 24 hour man and wanting seconds I GIMPed the images (did ya hear that damo??) and tweaked the code.

The original looks like this:

The "black line" image is inserted with an "overlay" LUA script. First time I have seen it - even though it's been here in an archived file forever it seems.

And my tweaked version looks like this, notice the conky window is a bit tighter to the images:

The original archive is: flipclock_by_blitz_bomb-d5ydsbd.zip so I would guess blitz_bomb is the author if not the person that at least .ZIPped it. So credit to blitz_bomb for this and wlourf for the text.lua. The overlay.lua has no known author.

Be careful /with/the/paths in the archive: flipclock.tar.gz - I've redone it to include my tweaks and images and I must admit another reason for the "3xflippers" with HH:MM:SS is a second conky could be done to show DD MM YY or MM DD YY or YY MM DD depending on where you live and or preference.

Sector11 · 2016-11-25 01:39:59

And yet another flipclock type conky although it doesn't look like a flip clock.. With lua and again with the overlay.lua that puts the two dots and the shaded areas in the numbers.

Now I don't particularly like this one because of the way it does things. I'm going to work on a tweak of this to redo it without the bash script. Mclock.tar.gz has the original "archive file" in it as well. The dot in the lower left = PM - oh how that will change here.

I can see a LOT of uses for the overlay.lua script though. Ideas are forming, unfortunately I'm not up with GIMP like some around there so I'll just have to 'find the images" I want to use.

unklar · 2016-11-25 10:48:35

^ Nice, Sector11 O:)

Well, I was not idle. I found the crunch and wanted to know if it works.

It has come out

-I only found your 24 hour clock (the time is so wrong)
-lua throws an arithmetic error

Conky: desktop window (2c5) is root window

My curiosity is satisfied.

Thanks to @ututo for the background image.

Sector11 · 2016-11-25 15:10:10

Well, I am getting the same errors you get unklar:

 25 Nov 16 @ 11:32:18 /media/5/conky/sapristi
  $ /media/5/conky/sapristi
Conky: desktop window (265) is root window
Conky: window type - normal

Conky: llua_do_call: function conky_main execution failed: /media/5/conky/sapristi/gauges.lua:18: attempt to perform arithmetic on a nil value

I cannot find the "function conky_" in a few of the LUA files:

See this
mrpeachy - You ROCK ON!

Specifically this part:

function conky_main()
This is our main function and the one we will set in the conkyrc for lua_draw_hook. If you open a lua script and not sure which function to set in conkyrc, look for conky_ in the function name.

In my test conky:

lua_load /media/5/conky/sapristi/global.lua
lua_draw_hook_pre conky_main
  ## function conky_main()
#lua_load /media/5/conky/sapristi/clock.lua
#lua_draw_hook_pre conky_clock_applet

#lua_load /media/5/conky/sapristi/clock_text.lua
#lua_draw_hook_pre clock_text_applet

#lua_load /media/5/conky/sapristi/functions.lua
#lua_draw_hook_pre   ## function conky_something() does NOT EXIST

#lua_load /media/5/conky/sapristi/conf.lua
#lua_draw_hook_pre   ## function conky_something() does NOT EXIST

#lua_load /media/5/conky/sapristi/gauges.lua
#lua_draw_hook_pre  ## function conky_something() does NOT EXIST

## -- NOT USED
#lua_load /media/5/conky/sapristi/battery.lua
#lua_draw_hook_pre conky_batt

Notice the error is in guages ... and ## function conky_something() does NOT EXIST

RE: Time displayed - the 2 LUA clock scripts that sapristi is using show time in 2 formats:

clock.lua - shows time in a 12 hour AM/PM format - you are using my 24Hour image behind it.
clock_text.lua - shows the time in 24 hour format.

Change the clock_text.lua to use AM/PM time ( %I vs %H ) unless you change the "clock.lua" itself to one that can use 24 hour time.

Sector11 · 2016-11-25 17:06:14

Some 12 hour clock faces to play with:

Top Left - Tpp Right

Middle Left - Middle Right

Bottom Left - Bottom Right

Bottom Centre

I don't think I have ever used these being a 24HR man

unklar · 2016-11-26 10:46:08

^ El Conkystador,

many cordial thanks!

Especially for the link to the lua-functions. Mrpeachy is everywhere.

You did not need to do the work. It was just my curiosity and it was satisfied.

Sector11 · 2016-11-26 15:24:26

Oh I did that because I'm interested too, and the 12 hour clock faces I have here were really old and well not do good. What really nice is that mrpeachy's work lives on and in the conky creator's own blog as well.

BTW: I had some more 'offline' time again yesterday so I worked on some 24 hour clock faces.

I start off with the International Conkystadors Clock:
and then I got serious.

This became this

Because I'm not good enough with GIMP to delete the hands and reconstruct the clock itself.

But another one worked out fairly well.

This became this

And last but not least

This became .

So there are a few more options now.

And for anyone that wants 12 hour clock faces with 24 hour notations as well:

Howdy from Texas to the many talented conky coders on this forum!

This forum looks just right for the following request. In error I posted this in the weather scripts forum. I apologize for the incorrect forum post.

I am really fond of the following chronographs and would like to see if I can get the scripts for these.

Thanks in advance.

They are all mine, and I've been looking for them.

The top one is one that was tweaked by DiderT over on the FR-Ubuntu forum and a French version of it can be found at ConkyPitStop if you want to try it before I find mine.

It's REALLY bothering me that I can't fine them.
The bottom three are just different tweaks of the same chronograph.

I WILL FIND THEM ... I WILL FIND THEM ... I WILL FIND THEM ... I WILL FIND THEM ...
I WILL ... I WILL ... !!!

This is the first time I've not been able to find something.

Is the site http://conky.pitstop.free.fr ?
When I try to access it I receive the error:

I can get to http://free.fr ok

I have all the confidence in the world that you will find them and as awesome as they are - I can wait until you do.

I think I have to look for stuff I can't find when I need it the most (thinking I put it somewhere where I couldn't possibly lose it) at least once a week... I'm seriously looking into some type of disk cataloging program/database where I can make sure all of my drives over all the different systems and external drives I have are included where I can search that database to find stuff...
