Hi all Pwidgets fans

This is my small contribution so far to Pwidgets Plugins.

Adding new one, Puppylinuxlogo

Latest, Text2Screen

Date Now a one liner, so you have more space for cooler widgets but still need to know the date.
Text2Screen
Pantera theme
Hostname
Uptime_Hostname
Puppylinuxlogo

Ok, here's the screeny ###################

NEW,

Hey trio, I like "Today", and I hope you don't mind I modded it. Funny I was thinking to create such a widget but you beat me to it! This what I had in mind, smaller because "calendar" is huge! Your script though Wink

With your permission can I upload a pet?

Also "tv" works fantastic on my faster machine but I can't get a shot! Do you use 'gimp' for a shot?

Ok, I'm changing name of my version to 'Date', Thanks Trio

See above post

Hmmm, a new Pwidgets theme, yes something different, I call it 'Peru', orangy type theme, suits a grey desktop, I toyed with the colors in Pwidgets-0.1, the first version.

There is an optional clock too, based on zigbert's minimal clock. It has a backup '.xonclockrc ' with colored hands, just backup your original .xonclockrc and rename this one to .xonclockrc (don't lose the "dot" infront of xonclockrc), includes minimal skin as in scrnsht. It installs as ".xonclockrc-peru"

USUAL WARNINGS APPLY! BACKUP!!!!

Here it is.... enjoy!

Ok got another new theme, was gonna call it Panther but I changed my mind to call it "Pantera" (Spanish for panther). It is blackish, so some may like it.

Also I have made a tarball of a few font changes. Now if you want to use this I suggest you backup your /root/.pwidgets/configs dir before starting. I didn't pet it because it is more of a demonstration than anything. It demonstrates that you can change your Pwidgets fonts to customise your desktop.
WARNING Please take note and backup, if things go awry you can then easily recover. You should be confident with replacing and editing files to use this.

Please read the 'README" file in the tarball

EDIT: Added latest "theme_pack" includes "Peru", "Panther", "Tiger", "Midnight" and "Greyscale"(suits your clock Sigmund Wink

)

Have fun!
New themes are now in Pwidgets by default, except Pantera, if you want pantera see second post.

Renamed to WiFi pet. Change parameters if you require a fast connection report whilst roaming.
For other use such as just checking local signal strength this version is much better.

Changes:
Frequency changed to Channel, more meaningful.
Some processes timing made longer, less Cpu load. It is now 2 thirds of first wireless.
Added Public IP address
