statuswin

README.md

Plan 9 "file viewer"

screenshot

Simply displays lines read from the file passed as param. If you run statuswin blah.out and blah.out contains "x\ny" then the window will show x and y in 2 boxes.

I use this to display on 9 some system info from my linux host (cpu usage, volume, pending package updates, etc)

On linux I start ./status-bar > /var/tmp/status-bar.out, then on 9 statuswin /mnt/term/var/tmp/status-bar.out

status-bar is an old ruby program of mine I've been dragging for years, check the monitors list at the end for configuration.
