A selection of information output tools for dmenu

These are a selection of independant tools for displaying various information about system status in dmenu. Some of them i.e. volume have options (up, down, mute...) which are selectable options in dmenu.

Example in dmenu:

Example in rofi:

They are compiled separately, for example:

nim c pingclock

and then run with

./pingclock dmenu
or
./pingclock rofi

it can also be run without any arguments to receive a i3bar compatible json string

Personally, I have these bound to key combinations in i3. In fact, I have a seperate bindsym mode in which all these tools are accessible i.e. $mod+i to get to "info" mode then p to show pingclock.

You can also set the volume and brightness levels by typing a numeric figure into the dmenu/rofi input box

There's also an i3bar_tools_threaded folder with tools for use with i3bar/i3blocks which continously update. Currently these are not working as I recently switched from this as primary, to a secondary choice.

These have some configuration variables explicit to me, you'll need to change them for you for them to be useful I imagine.

Dependencies

  • dmenu, rofi, or i3bar (with i3blocks)

I'm aware my code is messy. I'm aware my code is undocumented. But hopefully these things are simple enough to work out.
