alignment Aligned position on screen, may be top_left, top_right, top_middle, bottom_left, bottom_right, bottom_middle, middle_left, middle_right, or none (also can be abreviated as tl, tr, tm, bl, br, bm, ml, mr) background Boolean value, if true, Conky will be forked to background when started border_margin Border margin in pixels border_width Border width in pixels color0 A color variable for use inside TEXT segments color1 A color variable for use inside TEXT segments color2 A color variable for use inside TEXT segments color3 A color variable for use inside TEXT segments color4 A color variable for use inside TEXT segments color5 A color variable for use inside TEXT segments color6 A color variable for use inside TEXT segments color7 A color variable for use inside TEXT segments color8 A color variable for use inside TEXT segments color9 A color variable for use inside TEXT segments cpu_avg_samples The number of samples to average for CPU monitoring top_cpu_separate If true, cpu in top will show usage of one processor's power. If false, cpu in top will show the usage of all processors' power combined. default_color Default color and border color default_outline_color Default outline color default_shade_color Default shading color and border's shading color double_buffer Use the Xdbe extension? (eliminates flicker) It is highly recommended to use own window with this one so double buffer won't be so big. draw_borders Draw borders around text? draw_graph_borders Draw borders around graphs? draw_outline Draw outlines? draw_shades Draw shades? font Font name in X, xfontsel can be used to get a nice font gap_x Gap, in pixels, between right or left border of screen, same as passing -x at command line, e.g. gap_x 10 gap_y Gap, in pixels, between top or bottom border of screen, same as passing -y at command line, e.g. gap_y 10. imap Default global IMAP server. Arguments are: "host user pass [-i interval] [-f folder] [-p port] [-e command]". Default port is 143, default folder is 'INBOX', default interval is 5 minutes. If the password is supplied as '*', you will be prompted to enter the password when Conky starts. mail_spool Mail spool for mail checking max_port_monitor_connections Allow each port monitor to track at most this many connections (if 0 or not set, default is 256) max_specials Maximum number of special things, e.g. fonts, offsets, aligns, etc. (default is 512) max_user_text bytes Maximum size of user text buffer, i.e. layout below TEXT line in config file (default is 16384 bytes) text_buffer_size bytes 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. maximum_width pixels Maximum width of window minimum_size width (height) Minimum size of window mpd_host Host of MPD server mpd_port Port of MPD server mpd_password MPD server password music_player_interval Music player thread update interval (defaults to Conky's update interval) net_avg_samples The number of samples to average for net data no_buffers Substract (file system) buffers from used memory? override_utf8_locale Force UTF8? requires XFT own_window Boolean, create own window to draw? own_window_class Manually set the WM_CLASS name. Defaults to "Conky". own_window_colour colour If own_window_transparent no, set a specified background colour (defaults to black). Takes either a hex value (#ffffff) or a valid RGB name (see /usr/lib/X11/rgb.txt) own_window_hints undecorated,below,above,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager 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. own_window_title Manually set the window name. Defaults to "<hostname> - conky". own_window_transparent Boolean, set pseudo-transparency? own_window_type if own_window is yes, you may specify type normal, desktop or override (default: normal). 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. Override windows are not under the control of the window manager. Hints are ignored. This type of window can be useful for certain situations. out_to_console Print text to stdout. pad_percents Pad percentages to this many decimals (0 = no padding) pop3 Default global POP3 server. Arguments are: "host user pass [-i interval] [-p port] [-e command]". Default port is 110, default interval is 5 minutes. If the password is supplied as '*', you will be prompted to enter the password when Conky starts. short_units Shortens units to a single character (kiB->k, GiB->G, etc.). Default is off. stippled_borders Border stippling (dashing) in pixels total_run_times Total number of times for Conky to update before quitting. Zero makes Conky run forever update_interval Update interval in seconds uppercase Boolean value, if true, text is rendered in upper case use_spacer Adds spaces around certain objects to stop them from moving other things around. Arguments are left, right, and none (default). The old true/false values are deprecated and default to right/none respectively. Note that this only helps if you are using a mono font, such as Bitstream Vera Sans Mono. use_xft Use Xft (anti-aliased font and stuff) xftalpha Alpha of Xft font. Must be a value at or between 1 and 0. xftfont Xft font to use. TEXT After this begins text to be formatted on screen
