I'd recommend coding wanted behaviour in C and posting a patch :-). shell command Same as exec, except if the first value return is a value between 0-100, it will use that number for a bar. The size for the bar is currently fixed, but that may change in the future. shell command Same as execbar, but graphs values interval, shell command Same as exec but with specific interval. Interval can't be less than

pre_exec

shell command Executes a shell command one time before conky displays anything and puts output as text.

time

pixels Move text over by N pixels logfile, lines (interval) Displays last N lines of supplied text text file. If interval is not supplied, Conky assumes 2x Conky's interval. Max of 30 lines. Max of 30 lines can be displayed. (format) Local time, see man strftime to get more information about format

totaldown

net

Total download, overflows at 4 GB on Linux with 32-bit arch and there doesn't seem to be a way to know how many times it has already done that before conky has started. This takes arguments in the form: top <name> <number> Basically, processes are ranked from highest to lowest in terms of cpu usage, which is what <num> represents. The types are: "name", "pid", "cpu", and "mem". There can be a max of 10 processes liste Same as top, except sorted by mem usage instead of cpu Total upload, this one too, may overflow Number of updates (for debugging)
