Conky Harmattan: a stylish Linux Desktop Assistant

As the saying goes, 'the larger the power, the greater the responsibility '-at least it is completely correct on the multi-functional system monitoring tool of Conky Linux.

On the one hand, it is powerful and flexible, and on the other hand it is difficult to set up.

Conky Harmattan, a new theme collector from deviantArt user Zagortenay333, is no exception. Although the screen shows a stylish desktop gadget that can impress most people, it is estimated that many people will be scared away after learning about its complex configurations.

To help users, the author provides step-by-step installation guidance. If the installation process is not properly performed, it also provides a useful "Troubleshooting" manual to show you how to fix some of the most common problems.

Harmatten includes:

• 12 topics, including Ubuntu Touch, Numix, and Elementary designs
• Four display modes, including 'mini 'and 'compact'
• Two weather modes
• Weather unit conversion

Unlike most Conky themes, Harmattan won't copy others' screens to your screen.

By default, Harmattan is "fixed"; you need to press the ALT key and move it with the mouse. Alternatively, you can adjust the 'X' and 'y' values in conky-config in settings-which wastes a lot of time. In addition, do not forget to modify Yahoo! The area code of the weather forecast widget, which is in. conkyrc.
