situations.

variable is being inserted into the stuff inside conky.text at the
corresponding position, but before some substitutions are applied:
The default configuration file location is `~/.config/conky/conky.conf` or
`${sysconfdir}/conky/conky.conf`. On most systems, `$sysconfdir` is `/etc`,
and you can find the sample config file there in
`/etc/conky/conky.conf`.

* `\\` -> backslash
* `\\ ` -> space
* `\\N` -> template argument N (starting from 1)

cannot be smaller than the default value of 256 bytes.

Print text in the console, but use ncurses so that conky can
print the text of a new update over the old text. (In the future this
will provide more useful things).
- name: out_to_stderr
desc: Print text to stderr.
- name: out_to_x
desc: |-
When set to no, there will be no output in X (useful when
you also use things like out_to_console). If you set it to no, make
sure that it's placed before all other X-related setting (take the
first line of your configfile to be sure).
default: yes

desc: Force UTF8. Requires XFT.
- name: overwrite_file
desc: Overwrite the file given as argument.
- name: own_window
desc: Boolean, create own window to draw.

When ARGB visuals are enabled, this use this to modify the
alpha value used. Valid range is 0-255, where 0 is 0% opacity, and 255
is 100% opacity.
- name: own_window_argb_visual
desc: |-
Boolean, use ARGB visual? ARGB can be used for real
transparency, note that a composite manager is required for real
transparency. This option will not work as desired (in most cases) in
conjunction with 'own_window_type override'.
- name: own_window_class
desc: Manually set the WM_CLASS name.
default: Conky
- name: own_window_colour
desc: |-
If own_window_transparent no, set a specified background

default: black
args:
- seconds
- name: own_window_hints
desc: |-
If own_window is yes, you may use these window manager hints
to affect the way Conky displays. Notes: Use own_window_type desktop
as another way to implement many of these hints implicitly. If you use
own_window_type override, window manager hints have no meaning and are
ignored.
args:
- seconds
- name: own_window_title
desc: |-
Manually set the window name.
default: "conky (<hostname>)"

desc: |-
Boolean, set transparency? If ARGB visual is enabled, sets
background opacity to 0%.
- name: own_window_type
desc: |-
if own_window is yes, you may specify type normal, desktop,
dock, panel or override. Desktop windows are special
windows that have no window decorations; are always visible on your
desktop; do not appear in your pager or taskbar; and are sticky across
all workspaces. Panel windows reserve space along a desktop edge, just
like panels and taskbars, preventing maximized windows from
overlapping them. The edge is chosen based on the alignment option.
Override windows are not under the control of the window manager.
Hints are ignored. This type of window can be useful for certain
situations.
default: normal
- name: pad_percents
desc: Pad percentages to this many decimals (0 = no padding).
- name: pop3

Default global POP3 server. Arguments are: `host user pass
[-i interval (in seconds)] [-p port] [-e 'command'] [-r retries]\".
Default port is 110, default interval is 5 minutes, and default number
of retries before giving up is 5. If the password is supplied as '*',
you will be prompted to enter the password when Conky starts.
args:
- host
- user
- pass
- [-i interval (in seconds)]
- [-p port]
- [-e 'command']
- [-r retries]
- name: short_units

desc: Shows the time range covered by a graph.
- name: show_graph_scale
desc: Shows the maximum value in scaled graphs.
- name: stippled_borders
desc: Border stippling (dashing) in pixels.

Substitute N by a digit between 0 and 9, inclusively. The value of the
variable is being inserted into the stuff inside conky.text at the
corresponding position, but before some substitutions are applied:
* `\\n` -> newline
* `\\` -> backslash
* `\\ ` -> space
* `\\N` -> template argument N (starting from 1)
- name: text_buffer_size
desc: |-
Size of the standard text buffer (default is 256 bytes).
This buffer is used for intermediary text, such as individual lines,
output from $exec vars, and various other variables. Increasing the
size of this buffer can drastically reduce Conky's performance, but
will allow for more text display per variable. The size of this buffer
cannot be smaller than the default value of 256 bytes.
args:

If true, variables that output times output a number that
represents seconds. This doesn't affect $time, $tztime and $utime.

power. If false, cpu in top will show the usage of all processors'
power combined.

process, including arguments (whenever possible). Otherwise, only the
basename is displayed. Default value is false.

such as Bitstream Vera Sans Mono.
default: none
- name: use_xft
desc: Use Xft (anti-aliased font and stuff).

To use Lua Conky, you first need to make sure you have a version of
Conky with Lua support enabled (`conky -v` will report this).
Conky defines certain global functions and variables which can be
accessed from Lua code running in Conky. Scripts must first be loaded
using the lua_load configuration option. You then call functions in Lua
via Conky's $lua, $lua_read, and Lua hooks.
Be careful when creating threaded objects through the Lua API. You could
wind up with a whole bunch of threads running if a thread is created
with each iteration.
NOTE: In order to accommodate certain features in the cairo library's
API, Conky will export a few additional functions for the creation of
certain structures. These are documented below.

Some objects may create threads, and sometimes these threads will not be
destroyed until Conky terminates. There is no way to destroy or clean up
threads while Conky is running. For example, if you use an MPD variable,
the MPD thread will keep running until Conky dies. Some threaded objects
will use one of the parameters as a \'key\', so that you only have 1

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.

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.
