dst

Single-pid scalable dynamic system monitor for dwm (and others) based upon libuv.

Usage

dst periodically updates name of X11's root window with a report line.

For dwm it's just enough to have a dst process started.

For stumpwm root-name should be added in *screen-mode-line-format* explicitly.

(setf *screen-mode-line-format*
      (list ".... ^>" '(:eval (root-name))))
(defun root-name ()
  (let* ((screen (current-screen))
         (selwin (screen-focus-window (current-screen)))
         (root (screen-root screen)))
    (utf8-to-string
     (xlib:get-property root
                        :wm_name
                        :result-type '(vector (unsigned-byte 8))))))
