I just made this 今日, and didn't really have a chance to test it extensively. My guess is that it's GeekTool being buggy (it is 中々 buggy after all). Do you still have this problem? I would think that after restarting your system the problem would be gone. I've just posted an updated version of the scripts, but I haven't made any fixes in regards to this since I can't reproduce the 虫 (and I'm guessing that it's a problem with GeekTool).Īlso, if anyone notices a problem with the new version (2.0) 下さい tell me. I'm pretty obsessive with keeping my reviews at 0, and never had that problem. I've been using it for a while and it works 大した, but 今日 I reached 0 reviews and lessons and this happened

Now makes three times less API requests per hour while maintaining the same update frequency. Next Review Time now displays current time (updated every minute) instead of the time obtained from the API request (updated every five minutes) when the next review is available now. Nothing major, but I made a few improvements. Alternatively, you can go to the Properties window of each of the three label Geeklets, uncheck the “Override text:” checkbox, and paste “echo ‘Next Review’”, “echo ‘Lessons’”, and “echo ‘Reviews’” in the command field of each of the three label Geeklets, respectively.Įdit 3 (): Version 2.0.

If you have this problem, you can remove the old label Geeklets, download the new zip archive, and re-add the label Geeklets from there (all six other Geeklets are the same as before). The “GeekTool Helper” process that runs the actual Geeklets shouldn’t take anymore than ~20 MB of ram so long as you do this.Įdit 2: Posted a slightly updated version because I noticed the labels (“Next Review”, “Lessons”, and “Reviews”) sometimes disappear. To avoid this problem, restart your system once you’re done adding the Geeklets (and after each time you open the GeekTool app to make changes to your Geeklets). Oh, and because I know someone is going to ask here’s a link to the ダンボー wallpaper: …Įdit: Just found out that the 300 MB ram usage was caused by a memory leak in the GeekTool app. I’m sure there are more elegant ways to do this, but hey it works.

Log out and log in or restart your mac (there is a known bug in GeekTool which causes the Geeklets to appear in Mission Control if you don’t do this after having used the GeekTool app to make modifications to your Geeklets). Check the “Automatically Launch at Login” checkbox and close the GeekTool app (but, select the option not to close the Geeklets after the app quits)Ĩ.

To the right of the command field, click the “…” button (it’s black and hard to see) and paste your API key after “APIKey=”. In the Properties window, look for the field labelled “Command:”.
