Hi,
Thank you very much for your elaborate answer! This helped me a lot to
get things right again. I tweaked your suggestion to make it exactly
look like what I had before:
backtick 0 5 5 "/bin/date" '+%Y-%m-%d'
backtick 1 5 5 "/bin/date" '+%H:%M'
hardstatus alwayslastline '%{#00ff00}[ %H ][%{#ffffff;0}%=
%{7}%?%-Lw%?%{1}(%{15}%n%f%t%?(%u)%?%{1})%{7}%?%+Lw%?%? %=%{#00ff00}][
%{#00d7ff%{6}%0` %{#ffffff%{7}%1`%{#00ff00} ]'
Perhaps this help others as well, as I'm quite sure I'm not the only
one who "borrowed" that line :-)
