Description

Adds a lightweight text status bar to minimal Linux desktops, especially xmonad and similar window-manager setups. It can show workspace information, system status, scripts, and other configured text output without a full desktop panel.

It is best for users who are comfortable editing configuration files. Installing it does not automatically redesign the desktop; it needs to be started and configured by the window-manager session.

How to run
