Re: Using dzen, ratpoison, freebsd

Dirk Arlt:

I'm not sure what your question is here.  Why aren't you satisfied
with your two scripts here?

One thing I noticed is there is no sleep in your loop(s) so the
shell spins and updates your stats probably a lot more often than you
care about.  Consider adding at least a "sleep 1" to your loop(s).
