Geektool

Geektool is a wonderful program to display information on your desktop. Here you can see my "Control Center".

All command geeklets

date +%d               # Day number
date +%B               # Month

WEATHER=`curl --silent "http://weather.yahooapis.com/forecastrss?p=SZXX0035&u=c" | grep -E '(Current Conditions:|C<BR)' | tail -n1 | sed -e 's/<BR \/>//' -e 's/ C$/°C/'`
echo "Sion " $WEATHER
