Conky is a system monitor for X originally based on torsmo. Since its
|
||
|
inception, Conky has changed significantly from its predecessor, while
|
||
|
maintaining simplicity and configurability. Conky can display just about
|
||
|
anything, either on your root desktop or in its own window. Not only
|
||
|
does Conky have many built-in objects, it can also display just about
|
||
|
any piece of information by using scripts and other external programs.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Conky has more than 250 built in objects, including support for a
|
||
|
plethora of OS stats (uname, uptime, CPU usage, mem usage, disk usage,
|
||
|
\"top\" like process stats, and network monitoring, just to name a few),
|
||
|
built in IMAP and POP3 support, built in support for many popular music
|
||
|
players (MPD, XMMS2, Audacious), and much much more. Conky can display
|
||
|
this info either as text, or using simple progress bars and graph
|
||
|
widgets, with different fonts and colours.
