conky-jinx

A minimal Conky curses theme, to be displayed on a phone-size terminal.

Rationale

The objective of conky-jinx is to have a small text-base system monitor which draw your attention when a core resource starts missing on a remote computer.

It is designed to fit a terminal having a width of 59 characters, and a height of 35 characters, which is the size of Termux running on my Fairphone with a readable font.

Features

Conky-jinx displays only the basic resources that generally bring troubles:

• RAM usage,
• Swap usage,
• CPU usage,
• Filesystem usage,
• I/O rates,
• Network rates.

For RAM, Swap, CPU and Filesystem, the color of the bars change depending on their load, from white to red (going through rainbow colors).

If you spot a bar being red, bad things are probably happening.

Install & run

sudo apt install conky-cli
git clone --single-branch main --depth 1 https://github.com/nojhan/conky-jinx.git
conky -c conky-jinx/jinx.conky
