I made a conky to do that if you couldnā€™t get it! Glad you made it behave! :grin:

I had to edit the files in three places to get it to work. I have never done any Conkyā€™s. :frowning:

Are you running Plasma on anything? Itā€™s gotten really good in the latest updates. Wayland is running superbly. The only package not working is simple screen recorder on Wayland.

Spent the evening reading Jgmenu docs, and finally made a menu to my liking. Studied other peoples menus too to get ideas. This one searches apps without having a search box. Menu is fixed to left bottom corner, W+z brings it up, or the cursor there. Havenā€™t changed the wallpaper, though. Openbox is so snappy, must try with EnOS one day. :slight_smile:

found something interesting if you use ranger +cmus ( know cmus no for most )2021-03-14-Ranger+Cmus

ranger-cmus

This is a plugin for ranger file manager that adds 3 custom commands for interacting with cmus audio player:

    :cmus_play: sending files/folders to playlist.
    :cmus_lib: adding files/folders to library.
    :cmus_queue: enqueuing files/folders.

Installation

Copy cmus.py file to ~/.config/ranger/plugins folder or clone this repo and run make. Then restart ranger.
Usage

Just select or mark some files/folders and enter one of the commands, e.g. :cmus_play.

You can also add these lines to ~/.config/ranger/rc.conf to use these keyboard shortcuts (ep, el, eq):

map ep cmus_play
map el cmus_lib
map eq cmus_queue

Small update on my Breeze-Dark theme. I manage to figure out how to enable blur on the default theme (but in a copy of the default off-course).

Looking much better now. Also enabled the right-click menu blur. Itā€™s so damn sexy. I am officially in love with KDE. The grass IS greener on the other side.
