Why don't you set something up that throttles the CPU and eventually
turns it off in case it gets too hot? What use is there to show the
temperature on the status bar? Will the computer break if you're not
there to turn it off in case it gets too hot?
I just think things like this ruins the clean experience that dwm is.
cpu temp is not that useful, its agreeable, when hdd temp is very
useful,
its crucial for laptop users like me to keep their hdd temperature under
proper control. If I was using a desktop pc, I wouldn't bother myself
with
these tweaks, but as long as summer is coming, I think it come useful
for my
laptop.

Hi again, I managed to color taskbar output, but I need the cpu values
to
be colored on-the-fly, so when my temp is more than 50C then the values
should be red etc. can somebody help me to correct my script?
I understand that I must add a "if else" condition, but it doesn't work,
when I do, simply because I don't know correct syntax, and try to learn
on-the-fly).
here is my original script:
***********
while true
do
cpu_temp=$(cat /proc/acpi/ibm/thermal | awk '{printf("\x04 cpu: "$3"*"$4"
")}')
root_vol=$(df -h / | awk 'END {printf("\x01| root: "$5)}' | sed
's/Use%//')
home_vol=$(df -h /home| awk 'END {printf("\x01home: "$5)}' | sed
's/Use%//')
vol=$(aumix -q | awk '/vol/ {printf("\x01|\x03vol:"$3)}')
date=$(date | awk 'END {printf("\x01| \x01"$1" "$2" "$3)}')
uptime=$(uptime | awk 'BEGIN {FS = ":"}; END {printf("\x01|"$1":"$2)}')
taskbar_info=$(echo -e $cpu_temp $root_vol $home_vol $vol $date $uptime)
xsetroot -name "$taskbar_info"
sleep 5
done
************
There should be "if $cpu_temp > 60 then; "do the command again with red
colors", and how can I check the range of "if" condition? For example:
when cpu temp is [50-55] then it should be blue, when it goes up to
[60-65]
then red, so "if $cpu_temp == [50-55]; then "do command", but it doesn't
work(. Can somebody help me with syntax? Forgive me my ignorance, but I
will
be very thankful if somebody will help with it.

I've sorted this with a script: http://wklej.org/id/529183/
and here's my ~/.xinitrc http://wklej.org/id/529182/
The colors are defined in config.h:
static const char colors[NUMCOLORS][ColLast][8] = {
// border foreground background
{ "#333333", "#cccccc", "#222222" }, // 0 = normal
{ "#888888", "#ffffff", "#555555" }, // 1 = selected
{ "#333333", "#3399ff", "#222222" }, // 2 = light blue
{ "#333333", "#ff0000", "#222222" }, // 3 = red
{ "#333333", "#8afb17", "#222222" }, // 4 = green
{ "#333333", "#fdd017", "#222222" }, // 5 = yellow
{ "#333333", "#ffffff", "#222222" }, // 6 = white
{ "#333333", "#ff9900", "#222222" }, // 7 = orange
};
