I'd like to see your conky
setup to get ideas on how to "pimp it up", as I'm using the standard setup
Quite good idea. Not using it right now because I dont like the default one but if there is a nice one.. Keep it coming
Move to home folder and enter .config and again move into .conky there you can see
or via terminal
cd /home/γusernameγ/.config/.conky/*
View the file where you can see there code
One point to much
A work in progress
I show conky of @SGS in some post. And it is very well organized.
I'd like to see that!
This conky is also really nice in look...
Of course, my man!

I thought I would toss a conky or 2 in here - the first is a representative one that I've had (read refined) for years - and the second is a 'proof of concept' (read - a quicky) weather display - that doesn't use any tricky libraries to operate (not even lua!).
and number 2
I am happy to share code snippets from either where practical ( the first one uses a lot of lua from a specialist library you would need to install to make use of) - and I could post the entire code from the second one if anyone is interested - but it does involve a bit of setup too (a directory of images, a couple of 5-line scripts) so only if you actually want it to build from! Let me know...
Whwoa... that Conky is intense.
Well - it keeps getting 'refined' as we go - and it has to fill a 2160 px vertical screen! The middle section changes most - has been clocks, weather, news scrollers, graphs - whatever crosses my mind!
As I mentioned, any item I have that someone wants to see how it works - it's available. Only a problem if it calls a lua library you don't have...
These are very impressive! I would love to see what that file looks like!
You're after the weather one, right? What resolution do you use (I have it for my 3840x2160 - and probably for 1920x1080 as well. It requires a 'key' from openweathermap.com (free) so you need that before it will work...
Edit: corrected link
that's the one
4K or HD only? Can package it up either way - though on-screen positioning will be on you Let me know...
HD my laptop is 1900x1080
