To Do List

Create a text file with TextEdit but make sure you click Format>Make Plain Text before save. Then select the file in path in GeekTool.

 

News RSS

This one is a little more complicated lol

Download Shell: code.google.com/p/sh-rss-feed/downloads/list

In GeekTool: sh [location/]news.sh -[number] i.e. sh ~myname/bin/news.sh -4

The location is just where the news.sh file is located and the number is

how many post you want shown. It is possible to change the RSS feed

by opening news.sh and changing the url inside. Make sure the new url

does not have feed:// before it, if so just erase it.

 

Uptime

uptime | awk '{print "" $3 " " $4 " " $5 }' | sed -e 's/.$//g';

 

RAM

top -l 1 | awk '/PhysMem/ {print "" $8 " "}' ;

 

CPU

top -l 2 | awk '/CPU usage/ && NR > 5 {print $12, $13}'

 

The Text Uptime, CPU, RAM

Another text file, remember have to Make Plain Text before saving
