This conky configuration is based on this Deviant Artist - Garbriel

It seems that she wont release her custom conky , so i went and re-create a similar conky as hers (coz i luv it XD)

Might wanna release my own custom conky configuration as well

Some basics to conky :

TEXT - type this and everything below it will appear as text until another argument is typed

offset - controls the distance of x axis

voffset - controls the distance of y axis of an object

font - specify a font for an argument EG : font Ubuntu - this will display the argument with the font Ubuntu

Bold/Italic etc - makes the font appears as alternate font EG : font Ubuntu:Bold - this will display the argument with the font Ubuntu Bold

size/pixelsize - controls an argument size EG : pixelsize=90 - makes the argument size at 90 pixels

CPU/RAM and other commands to display various computer status can be obtained from here  config_settings.html ( 19.79k ) Number of downloads: 3
and here for the variables  variables.html ( 96.15k ) Number of downloads: 4


What are config settings ? - How an argument is being displayed EG : Pictures , background , alignment etc

What are variables ? - What/Which to display EG : battery , ram , cpu etc

How to learn conky ? - I suggest to launch any downloaded conky with ALT + F2 : conky ~/.conkyrc (depends on the conky configuration) and tweak/modify the .conkyrc file with any variables or settings that you wanted by relating the changes with what you have typed

Good Luck
