Jochen Keil 56b5a7eeca Wrapper for drawing images with imlib2 and cairo 
One problem is, that tolua/lua does not handle plain data pointers
properly. Therefore something like

local surface = cairo_image_surface_create_for_data(
    imlib_image_get_data_for_reading_only(), ..

will fail using the lua bindings. Hence this wrapper, which adds
a function which be used to draw an imlib image to a cairo surface.

This also addresses another issue, drawing images with a transparent
background (e.g. gifs or pngs) to the cairo surface properly. Apparently
the image format of imlib is incompatible to cairos which uses
pre-multiplied data. This is also explained in the cairo documentation.
A fix for this issue is to blend the image with another alpha mask to
get the correct values. The code and explanation for this was taken from

  http://lists.cairographics.org/archives/cairo/2008-March/013492.html

Executive Summary: This wrapper function can load (transparent) images
(e.g. gif or png) from a file by using imlib and draw them on a cairo
surface.

Conky

Build Status

Conky is a free, light-weight system monitor for X, that displays any kind of information on your desktop.

Features

Conky can display more than 300 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, BMPx, Audacious).
  • Can be extended using built-in Lua support, or any of your own scripts and programs ([more](Lua Interface)).
  • Built-in Imlib2 and Cairo bindings for arbitrary drawing with Lua (more).

... and much much more.

Conky can display information either as text, or using simple progress bars and graph widgets, with different fonts and colours.
