File2mon - monitoring cpu temperature, battery capacity and things like this in system tray.

This program read information from given file and create the icon. It's possible to set how many bytes to read from file and update interval.

This program is gtk+ and ImageMagic based.

Examples:

1. CPU temperature:

file2mon -i -f /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1/device/temp1_input -e C -t cputemp -u 3 -l 2 -c white -s 22

• -e C: Ending string append after text.
• -t cputemp: Icon description.
• -u 3: Update interval.
• -l 2: Number of bytes to read.
• -c white: Font color.
• -s 22: Font size.

2. Battery:

file2mon -i -f /sys/class/power_supply/BAT1/capacity -e % -t battery -u 5 -l 2 -c yellow -s 22

• -e %: Ending string append after text.
• -t battery: How many bytes to read.
• -u 3: Update interval.
• -l 2: Number of bytes to read.
• -c yellow: Font color.
• -s 22: Font size.
• -i: Show info.

3. Load average 15min:

 file2mon -i -f /proc/loadavg -o 5 -l 4 -u 5 -c yellow -s 18 

• -o 5: Offset in the file.
• -l 4: How many bytes to read.
• -u 5: Update interval.
