I've just started to use xmobar. It's cool. But I still need dzen2 for the DynamicLog stuff. Is there another way?
No, for the time being. I can easily write a plugin if you use a log file, but reading a named pipe is almost impossible for xmobar.
I can not see any differences. You can always do % mkfifo myfifo % while sleep 1; do date > myfifo; done And in another shell % tail -f myfifo | dzen2 As long as xmobar can read from stdin, what is the type of the file `myfifo' is absolutely transparent to xmobar. -- c/* __o/* <\ * (__ */\ <
