Yayy! dzen2 is cool :) I've done some little changes to allow me to use't as a
button
in the top bar. I've changed the -m flag for -l (lines instead of multiline has
more sense
for me).
I've used mesure as stdin for dzen2 and now I've a network-meter in the top bar
of dwm. if
you want to use it fetch the latest version of mesure from the CVS
(cvs.nopcode.org) and
type this in your ~.xinitrc:
(
while : ; do
(echo eth0 && mesure -atnDKvi eth0 ) | dzen2 -x 1020 -w 80 -b 50 -l 1 -l 5
xterm -bg black -fg gray -e sudo tcpdump -i eth0
done
) &
The new flag for dzen2 is -b that accepts a numeric value to define the width
of the title box.
The patch is attached.
Suggestions and ideas:
======================
- hook SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2 for rollup/rolldown the window
- return value depends on the mouse button (0 = left button, 1 = middle
button, 2 = right button) ...
- support for wheel (progressive rollup/rolldown)
If we hook USR1 we can put a new keybinging to execute:
pkill -USR1 dzen2
This can be used to rollup/down all the running dzen2s with a single keystroke
Nice toy!
