I have a new computer which means that I've had to upgrade my conkyrc and conky setup.
# Based on conky-jc and the default .conkyrc. #

There are some things that this conky does, like doing an apt-get upgrade and telling me if there are any updates
available. It monitors my hard drive, my phone when its recharging, and my Backup drive. It monitors my vnstat output
daily and for the month too. It also tells me my ip address, which means that if I don't see that then I have no
internet connection.
I also have a .conkyrc2 file for trying out various things for my main conky file. And here it is;-

In order to run two, or three, instances of conky I have a special file, which is operated by using a menu entry. Save the file to your drive, and then create a menu item for it, the first time its pressed it kills all instances of conky that are running, and the second time its pressed it restarts conky. This is the file -
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 | #!/bin/sh
# click to start, click to stop
if pidof conky \| grep [0-9] > /dev/null
then
exec pkill conky
else
sleep 30 # sleep not required for xfce on startup - 30 or more for others
conky -c ~/.conkyrc &
conky -c ~/.conkyrc2 &
#conky -c ~/.conkyrc3 &
conky -c /home/boztu/.conky/conkyweather/conkyrc_conkyWeather_arclance
exit
