About The Project

Product Name Screen Shot

A status bar generator for lemonbar, inspired by i3blocks and dwmblocks, written in plain C.

demo

demo

Lemonbar reads from stdin for the status, it supports clickable areas, the commands will be written to stout.

Lemonblocks tries to make feeding the bar easier. You can define your own modules which you can asign signals. Every time you want to update one of your modules, you can send a signal to the instance of lemonblocks to run the associated command. This means that you don't have to run a script at certain intervals, instead you update it only when necessary.

Getting Started

  1. Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/b3nj5m1n/lemonblocks.git
