And thanks for the response, I'll try for the time being using the temporary file but I'd really prefer the feature of separate scripts.

I believe the cheapest solution could be this one:

With "A" being the "status" beecon (with status querying script updating manually, every startup, on desktop change, every 30 or so seconds) and "B" being the "toggle" beecon/button (with status toggling script just for manual interaction)

This creates a new problem, isn't it? B would have to call A since it change's A status, otherwise A would only change colors on the next time threshold. OR the user should always click on B then click on A, which would be also a nuisance.

Yesssss!!! you're right ... but has I said, since the Beecon is not the only direct controller of the fmtx program behaviour (fmtx takes the initiative of switching itself off after inactivity) also the polling mechanism to monitor fmtx status according to timer periodicity will be inaccurate however

... then sorry, my friend ... no cheap method for this use case!!! :(

I just started using this app and all I can say is "what an amazing piece of work!!".
Now I just need to study it a bit more to see what I can do with it and how to arrange them. =)

No!No!No!Yes! 2010-04-13 21:35

Here's some stuff I did so far with your awesome widget.
Used 5 of queen beecon (snippet mode) in this desktop.

1. Overclocked@1Ghz is a snippet 'button' with following code. It's to reset it back to 1Ghz after a phone call. (some kind of issue where overclock is reset to 800mhz after a call)

Code:

echo "echo 1000000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq" | sudo gainroot
2. Output down the bottom is certain lines from cpufreq-info output. (you can install cpufreq tools from app manager)

3. Standard Rootfs and Battery output. (separate widgets)

4. LCD button on right which is used to instantly dim the LCD to lower than lowest level possible in settings.

Code:

echo "echo 2 > /sys/class/backlight/acx565akm/brightness" | sudo gainroot

No!No!No!Yes! 2010-04-14 06:24

Neat and nice layout ... with a bit more tweaking and scripting (awk and the like) you could also highlight and change text properties for point 2 ... for example: cpu values/% in bold or "MHZ" in subscript style or with different font with Pango Markup Language

Also Battery and Rootfs could be replaced by their specific dynamic icons showing status in a visual way like this:

Command request
 
Could someone help me a bit?

I would like to have a single button that sets the wifi off, changes mode to gsm and shuts down all connections and possibly shuts the screen off. It would be so handy to just push that single button before you put your device to pocket. I dont have skills to create command like that. Thanx. :)

No!No!No!Yes! 2010-04-14 09:34

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget: Customizable and flexible monitoring tool.
 
This should be the sequence of commands to script:
Code:

#This disconnects from the net
run-standalone.sh dbus-send --system --dest=com.nokia.icd /com/nokia/icd_ui com.nokia.icd_ui.disconnect boolean:true

#This shuts down wifi
rmmod wl12xx

#This sets phone to 2G
run-standalone.sh dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.phone.net /com/nokia/phone/net Phone.Net.set_selected_radio_access_technology byte:1

#This locks screen
run-standalone.sh dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=com.nokia.mce /com/nokia/mce/request com.nokia.mce.request.req_tklock_mode_change string:locked

Noticed that a Serie A scores widget had been created - has there been anyone who has created a Premiership widget as yet?

That would be amazing! :D
