#! /usr/bin/lua local usage = [[ Usage: convert.lua old_conkyrc [new_conkyrc] Tries to convert conkyrc from the old v1.x format to the new, lua-based format. Keep in mind that there is no guarantee that the output will work correctly with conky, or that it will be able to convert every conkyrc. However, it should provide a good starting point. Although you can use this script with only 1 arg and let it overwrite the old config, it's suggested to use 2 args so that the new config is written in a new file (so that you have backup if something went wrong). Optional: Install dos2unix. We will attempt to use this if it is available because Conky configs downloaded from Internet sometimes are created on DOS/Windows machines with different line endings than Conky configs created on Unix/Linux. For more information about the new format, read the wiki page ]]; local function quote(s) if not s:find("[\n'\\]") then return "'" .. s .. "'"; end; local q = ''; while s:find(']' .. q ..
