"while true - do .. - done" is a never-ending loop. The date +"%H:%M" command shows you hours:minutes and pipes the output to osd_cat (installed on BBQ). Alignment is right, at the bottom position, with an offset of -40 pixels and indented 20 pixels, in cyan color. Done :D after this, the window manager starts
Code: Select all
# ...all your .xinitrc stuff are above this
while true; do date +"%H:%M" | osd_cat -A right -p bottom -o -40 -i 20 -c cyan; done &
exec <window-manager>
