I use linux + ratpoison + dzen. In my dzen script, I have define the
following function (very much specific to my needs but you may be able
to customise it according to yours) which gets the sizes of a set of
mbox style mail files:
,----
| # get numbers of messages in various mailboxes (inbox, spool and drafts)
| function mbox () {
| res=""
| colour=$RED
| for m in vmdrafts vminbox.spool vminbox
| do
| f="$HOME/s/Mail/$m"
| if [ -f $f ];
| then
| r=$(from -c -f $HOME/s/Mail/$m | awk '{print $3}')
| else
| r="0"
| fi
| res="$res $colour$r"
| colour=$GREEN
| done
| echo $res
| }
`----
I then have the following in my loop within the dzen script:
,----
| MAILINFO=$(mbox)
| MAILLINE=$(echo "M: $GREEN$MAILINFO$RED |$CLEAN")
| echo "$MAILLINE $POWERLINE $TEMPERATURELINE | Load: $LOADLINE | $VOLUMELINE |
$DATELINE"
|
| sleep 10
`----
