 |
|
So I'm trying to set up conky to output onto one screlling bar and so far have this code.
the code should post percentage of cpu used, then a pipe and then 'processes' (etc, as laid out in script).
However,what it shows is cpu percentage followed by ' ${col}o' (no quotes), 70-80 spaces, then the loop restarts.
it seems like it's suffering from a typo, but I'm not finding it, any help is appreciated in finding the problem

| Code: | ${color2}Load:${color}${alignr}${loadavg}
${color2}CPUs:${color}${alignr}${cpu cpu1}% ${cpu cpu2}% ${cpu cpu3}% ${cpu cpu4}% ${cpu cpu5}% ${cpu cpu6}% |

That did clean up the junk after, but it still ends there. inyerestingly enough, placing a closing brace on that line,and removing the one at EOF causes the full output in 2 lines with upper scrolling. That would lead to an acceptable solution if the space I wanted to putit in was more tham 1 line high

I've never used scroll, but the code looks fine to me. Check that there is no space at the end, between \ and newline. I've had that problem in other contexts. |

if I remove scroll it seems to work fine (output is wider than screen space). unfortuantly where I want to put it is only about ~3" wide. and that code is my rough draft, end result will be 2-3 times as much
just checked, no extra spaces in code.. I'm begining to suspect i'm up against a (hardcoded?) limit of the scroll feature
