Comment and replies on GeekTool:
This is to the usability crowd what Konfabulator is (was) to the eye-candy crowd.
So this is like torsmo/conky for OSX? Sweet!
What I use GeekTool for:
- Swap space: sysctl vm.swapusage | awk '{printf "%d/%d (%d)\n", $7, $4, $10}'
- Top 4 memory hoggers: top -l1 -o rsize -n4 -U [my username] | awk 'NR==9,NR==12 {printf "%3d %s\n", $8, $2}'
- Bluetooth status (needs blueutil, http://www.frederikseiffert.de/blueutil/): /usr/local/bin/blueutil status | awk '{print "BT: " $2}'
- Mounted local drives: df -H -l
- Load averages: sysctl vm.loadavg | sed s/'^vm.loadavg: '//
Note for anyone who cares:
there's a patch for unicode support on the developer's forum.
And geektool works just fine with Leopard and Spaces.
