No. The resolution of Lua's os.date is only one second, which makes syncing updates to the second impossible. And I can't be arsed to export more high resolution functions from the C side, because clocks that update every second are an idiotic distraction that will draw your attention all the time. > If not, is it possible to stop the output from statusd_exec from being > truncated? The statusbar only truncates things if a template has been set, to match the width of this template. Check your settings and the script. -- Tuomo
