eating previous thoughts

+

I wanted to keep my status bar simple, and slstatus fitted the bill

+

But I was missing an indication of the CPU temperature as I got tired of using conky +as it was only visible on empty DWM tags, and I didn't want to try writing a program in C to do it.

+

So a new status monitor was needed. I liked the idea of dwmblocks firing up bash scripts, +but I tried the original and several forks without luck. I finally settled on +dwmblocks-async, because it is more recent and ... it worked.

+

Dwmblocks-async
