.SH DESCRIPTION
Conky is a system monitor for X originally based on torsmo.
Since its inception, Conky has changed significantly from its predecessor, while maintaining
simplicity and configurability. Conky can display just about anything, either
on your root desktop or in its own window. Not only does Conky have many
built-in objects, it can also display just about any piece of information by
using scripts and other external programs.
.PP
Conky has more than 250 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), and much much more.
Conky can display this info either as text, or using simple progress
bars and graph widgets, with different fonts and colours.
.PP
We are always looking for help, whether its reporting bugs, writing patches, or writing docs.
Please use the facilities at SourceForge to make bug reports, feature requests, and submit patches,
or stop by #conky on irc.freenode.net if you have questions or want to contribute.
.PP
Thanks for your interest in Conky.
.SH COMPILING
For users compiling from source on a binary distro, make sure you have the X development
libraries installed. This should be a package along the lines of "libx11-dev" or
"xorg-x11-dev" for X11 libs, and similar "-dev" format for the other libs required (depending
on your configure options).
.PP
Conky has (for some time) been available in the repositories of most popular distributions.
Here are some installation instructions for a few:
.PP
Gentoo users -- Conky is in Gentoo's Portage... simply use "emerge app-admin/conky" for installation.
There is also usually an up-to-date ebuild within Conky's package or in the git repo.
.PP
Debian, etc. users -- Conky should be in your repositories, and can be installed by doing
"aptitude install conky".
.PP
Example to compile and run Conky with all optional components (note that some configure options may differ for your system):

.PP
Conky has been tested to be compatible with C99 C, however it has not been tested
with anything other than gcc, and is not guaranteed to work with other compilers.
.PP
.SH "YOU SHOULD KNOW"
Conky is generally very good on resources. That said, the more you try to make Conky
do, the more resources it is going to consume.
.PP
An easy way to force Conky to reload your ~/.conkyrc: "killall -SIGUSR1 conky".
Saves you the trouble of having to kill and then restart. You can now also do the same with SIGHUP.

\fB\*(T<\fBexec\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBcommand\fR\*(T> 
Executes a shell command and displays the output in conky. warning: this takes a lot more resources than other variables. I'd recommend coding wanted behaviour in C and posting a patch.

.TP 
\fB\*(T<\fBexecp\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBcommand\fR\*(T> 
Executes a shell command and displays the output in conky. warning: this takes a lot more resources than other variables. I'd recommend coding wanted behaviour in C and posting a patch. This differs from $exec in that it parses the output of the command, so you can insert things like ${color red}hi!${color} in your script and have it correctly parsed by Conky.
Caveats: Conky parses and evaluates the output of $execp every time Conky loops, and then destroys all the objects. If you try to use anything like $execi within an $execp statement, it will functionally run at the same interval that the $execp statement runs, as it is created and destroyed at every interval.

.TP 
\fB\*(T<\fBexecpi\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBinterval command\fR\*(T> 
Same as execp but with specific interval. Interval can't be less than update_interval in configuration. Note that the output from the $execpi command is still parsed and evaluated at every interval.

.TP 
\fB\*(T<\fBpop3_unseen\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(args)\fR\*(T> 
Displays the number of unseen messages in your global POP3 inbox by default. You can define individual POP3 inboxes seperately by passing arguments to this object. Arguments are: "host user pass [-i interval] [-p port] [-e command] [-r retries]". Default port is 110, default interval is 5 minutes, and default number of retries before giving up is 5. If the password is supplied as '*', you will be prompted to enter the password when Conky starts.

Scroll 'text' by 'step' characters showing 'length' number of characters at the same time. The text may also contain variables. 'step' is optional and defaults to 1 if not set. If a var creates output on multiple lines then the lines are placed behind each other separated with a '|'-sign. Do NOT use vars that change colors or otherwise affect the design inside a scrolling text. If you want spaces between the start and the end of 'text', place them at the end of 'text' not at the front ("foobar" and " foobar" can both generate "barfoo" but "foobar " will keep the spaces like this "bar foo").

.TP 
\fB\*(T<\fBsmapi\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(ARGS)\fR\*(T> 
when using smapi, display contents of the /sys/devices/platform/smapi directory. ARGS are either '(FILENAME)' or 'bat (INDEX) (FILENAME)' to display the corresponding files' content. This is a very raw method of accessing the smapi values. When available, better use one of the smapi_* variables instead.

.TP 
\fB\*(T<\fBsmapi_bat_bar\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(INDEX),(height),(width)\fR\*(T> 
when using smapi, display the remaining capacity of the battery with index INDEX as a bar.

\fB\*(T<\fBsmapi_bat_perc\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(INDEX)\fR\*(T> 
when using smapi, display the remaining capacity in percent of the battery with index INDEX. This is a separate variable because it supports the 'use_spacer' configuration option.

.TP 
\fB\*(T<\fBsmapi_bat_power\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBINDEX\fR\*(T> 
when using smapi, display the current power of the battery with index INDEX in watt. This is a separate variable because the original read out value is being converted from mW. The sign of the output reflects charging (positive) or discharging (negative) state.

.TP 
\fB\*(T<\fBsmapi_bat_temp\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBINDEX\fR\*(T> 
when using smapi, display the current temperature of the battery with index INDEX in degree Celsius. This is a separate variable because the original read out value is being converted from milli degree Celsius.

.TP 
\fB\*(T<\fBtcp_portmon\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBport_begin port_end item (index)\fR\*(T> \fI(ip4 only at present)\fR 
TCP port monitor for specified local ports. Port numbers must be in the range 1 to 65535. Valid items are:

\fBcount\fR - total number of connections in the range
.br
\fBrip\fR - remote ip address
.br
\fBrhost\fR - remote host name
.br
\fBrport\fR - remote port number
.br
\fBrservice\fR - remote service name from /etc/services
.br
\fBlip\fR - local ip address
.br
\fBlhost\fR - local host name
.br
\fBlport\fR - local port number
.br
\fBlservice\fR - local service name from /etc/services

The connection index provides you with access to each connection in the port monitor. The monitor will return information for index values from 0 to n-1 connections. Values higher than n-1 are simply ignored. For the "count" item, the connection index must be omitted. It is required for all other items.

Examples:
.br
\fB${tcp_portmon 6881 6999 count}\fR -
displays the number of connections in the bittorrent port range
.br
\fB${tcp_portmon 22 22 rip 0}\fR -
displays the remote host ip of the first sshd connection
.br
\fB${tcp_portmon 22 22 rip 9}\fR -
displays the remote host ip of the tenth sshd connection
.br
\fB${tcp_portmon 1 1024 rhost 0}\fR -
displays the remote host name of the first connection on a privileged port
.br
\fB${tcp_portmon 1 1024 rport 4}\fR -
displays the remote host port of the fifth connection on a privileged port
.br
\fB${tcp_portmon 1 65535 lservice 14}\fR -
displays the local service name of the fifteenth connection in the range of all ports

Note that port monitor variables which share the same port range actually refer to the same monitor, so many references to a single port range for different items and different indexes all use the same monitor internally. In other words, the program avoids creating redundant monitors.
.TP 
\fB\*(T<\fBtexeci\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBinterval command\fR\*(T> 
Runs a command at an interval inside a thread and displays the output. Same as $execi, except the command is run inside a thread. Use this if you have a slow script to keep Conky updating. You should make the interval slightly longer then the time it takes your script to execute. For example, if you have a script that take 5 seconds to execute, you should make the interval at least 6 seconds. See also $execi.

.TP 
\fB\*(T<\fBoffset\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(pixels)\fR\*(T>

.TP 
\fB\*(T<\fBtab\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(width, (start))\fR\*(T>

.TP 
\fB\*(T<\fBtail\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fBlogfile lines (interval)\fR\*(T> 
Displays last N lines of supplied text text file. If interval is not supplied, Conky assumes 2x Conky's interval. Max of 30 lines can be displayed, or until the text buffer is filled.

.TP 
\fB\*(T<\fBtemplateN\fR\*(T>\fR \*(T<\fB(arg1)\fR\*(T> \*(T<\fB(arg2)\fR\*(T> \*(T<\fB(arg3 ...)\fR\*(T> 
Evaluate the content of the templateN configuration variable (where N is a value between 0 and 9, inclusively),
applying substitutions as described in the documentation of the corresponding configuration variable.
The number of arguments is optional, but must match the highest referred index in the template. You can use the
same special sequences in each argument as the ones valid for a template definition, e.g. to allow an argument
to contain a whitespace. Also simple nesting of templates is possible this way.

Here are some examples of template definitions:

template0 $\e1\e2
.br
template1 \e1: ${fs_used \e2} / ${fs_size \e2}
.br
template2 \e1 \e2

The following list shows sample usage of the templates defined above,
with the equivalent syntax when not using any template at all:

.SH BUGS
Drawing to root or some other desktop window directly doesn't work with
all window managers. Especially doesn't work well with Gnome and it has
been reported that it doesn't work with KDE either. Nautilus can be
disabled from drawing to desktop with program gconf-editor. Uncheck
show_desktop in /apps/nautilus/preferences/. There is -w switch in Conky
to set some specific window id. You might find xwininfo -tree useful to
find the window to draw to. You can also use -o argument which makes
Conky to create its own window. If you do try running Conky in its own
window, be sure to read up on the own_window_type settings and experiment.
