First, great system tool. You can use it as little or as much as you want, and it's very extendable if you take the time to run with it. For an idea of the capabilities (and for some creative ideas) do a google image search for GeekTool.Second, the software was recently updated to 3.1.2 for compatibility with El Capitan. For some reason the auto software update detection in the 3.1.1 app isn't detecting this, so you'll need to download it directly from the developer's site:http://projects.tynsoe.org/en/geektool/download.php. I found Geektool to be a mixed bag.
The features it provides are very helpful, but the abysmal user interface and the nonexistent documentation make the learning curve very steep. I spent a whole day experimenting and googling to figure out how to call a shell script file from a geeklet (you have to use 'source /.bashprofile' on the second line after the shebang, or the output of commands won't be displayed).Also, while Geektool runs without problems on my 10.7.5 machines, it behaves completely haphazard on my 10.8.5 server (Geeklets not being displayed at all, clicking the 'close' button of a geeklet not having any effect, etc. On most of these cases, it helps to kill GeektoolHelper in Activity Monitor.Do not expect to get any help from the forum on the developer's website, as it is overrun with spam. (you have to use 'source /.bashprofile' on the second line after the shebang, or the output of commands won't be displayed)I'm pretty sure that that's because your particular commands presuppose, implicitly, a certain $PATH. If you set the PATH explicitly in your shell scripts, or use absolute paths like '/usr/bin/perl', then there is no need for the sourcing of anything.It's not GeekTool's fault that there's no way to automatically source your PATH or your aliases that you set in your.bashprofile. Absolutely bizarre that there is no GUI means of deleting a single geeklet within a group; that you have to go through the faff of not just deleting a plist entry but also quitting not only the application but also the helper application to stop the one you want to get rid of persisting anyway and yes am quite aware the workaround would be to put every single.glet into a separate group but this is rather beside the point and also not much use if you've already got all your geeklets in one. This seeming interface idiocy spoils exploration of the app somewhat.Quite content to stand corrected if there is some really obvious 'Delete' button that I'm just not seeing somehow but regardless Geektool should just let you delete a.glet on highlighting it and pressing the delete key (it's not as if backspace in that context is assigned to anything else!) But perhaps this would all be too.
Ungeekily straightforward? Fantastic app. It's called GeekTool for a reason; you have to already have some geekery ability to make it do much of interest. If you don't know what a shell script is, or how to write one, or are totally unfamiliar with things that live in /usr/bin, you won't be able to do much besides put images on your desktop. And most other things don't make a lot of sense then. But if you are a Geek, it couldn't really much get easier to use.It could use improvement in certain areas.
For instance, it often reshuffles the order of which geeklets get loaded first. This can ruin a carefully-crafted desktop. If you try to fix this, you can, but you run into the fact that GeekTool keeps track of its geeklets by means of hexadecimal UIDs instead of the names that you already gave your geeklets when you created them. So to shuffle their order in the plist, you have to write down which UID goes with which geeklet. There should be a box or something in the app's preferences that allow you to change the load order of geeklets, and shows you a list of them by name (not UIDs).It would probably work smoother if there was something in the preferences that allowed the user to set a custom $PATH.One gripe: 3.1.1 came out, and it destroyed the look of Monaco at 9pt and 10pt. They are now antialiased, where they never were before. Monaco looks.terrible.
antialiased at those sizes, and having it antialiased makes things displayed look much, much less geeky:) Indeed, I'd love to see it get the ability to optionally disable antialiasing for.any. font (like in Terminal). Downloaded it from the App store and although I'm not a geek, I found a lot of materials online where I learned the basics on how to use this app.It would be nice if the developers would provide a basic tutorial and perhaps step-by-step instructions for beginners. It would also be great if finished desktops could be 'packaged' into template files that one could install.I stopped using it after a day because I found that the time I had displayed on my desktop was always incorrect. The system time was correct and displayed correctly in the menu bar but not with this app.
I searched but couldn't find a solution. Although GeekTool can do some awesome stuff, you really do need to be a geek to be able to use it.I downloaded after seeing some cool desktops online but was surprised to find that it doesn't actually come with any scripts at all or any kind of ability to access scripts online, leaving novices dazed and confused about what to do next.What's more, the developer doesn't have a repository of scripts on their homepage or even a forum for users to discuss and share their scripts. This leaves you with the only option of trawling the net to find examples of good scripts, which frankly seems like more effort than it's worth!A little more help for novices and a few example scripts would go a long way, but I guess the geek attitude is you have to learn these things the hard way! While I'm happy to see this is finally being updated, there are still several problems, and one of them is quite unforgivable:- GeekTool is currently taking up 200MB of RAM.
This is unacceptable and makes it unusable for me. Such a small problem should not take up so much RAM. NerdTool by comparison takes up only 16.6MB (that could probably be improved too, but it's certainly better than 200).- You can't put a drop shadow on the text from a shell script.- You can't customize terminal colors as you can with NerdTool. I don't like what it picks for the default green, it'd be nice if that was something I could change.- There's no way to change advanced text output like line spacing.On the plus side though, unlike NerdTool, you when it says 'stay on top', your tools will stay above the menubar which is very useful for doing stuff like replacing MenuMeters. All I know is after I leave GeekTook 3 running for awhille, my iMac slows to a crawl. I have no other app that needs such a huge VM file.
Trying to quit gracefully out of GeekTool when it gets like this is an exercise in patience, as it's one Beachball of Death after another. The INSTANT I quit out of GeekTook, I can use my Mac again. True, this is empirical, but it happens repeatedly, and it's good enough for me to disable GeekTool, as much I'll miss it.When it's behaving GeekTool is a must-have.
This doesn't behave, at least not for me. I'm running Leopard (10.5.1) on a MBP and I have been having sleep issues with Geektool running. Of course, I can close the lid and it will fall asleep, but if Geektool is running and I just let the Power Saving preferences take it's toll, it doesn't fall asleep.If the refresh time on a GT entry is greater than the sleep time, the machine will fall asleep.

But that kind of eliminates the whole purpose of the utility if I can only refresh every 10 minutes. Does anyone have a solution to this problem, or at least experience the same problem I'm having? Love GeekTool. Note to developer (assuming you are still working on this amazing little preference pane): Under Tiger, I get these messages in the system log./Library/PreferencePanes/GeekTool.prefPane/Contents/Resources/GeekTool.app/Contents/MacOS/GeekTool: The function CGSDictionaryObjectForKey is obsolete and will be removed in a Tiger update.
Unfortunately, this app, or a library it uses, is using this obsolete function, and is thereby contributing to an overall degradation of system performance.It would seem this would be a minor API change to make to the app to make it more compatible with Tiger. Here's hoping for continued development on one of my favorite little utilities.
A fabulous little utility, that makes it very easy to keep track of lots of stuff at the UNIX layer of your Mac - or even several machines if you have mounted their drives remotely.Being able to keep a running look at my console, network config, process list and top -u summary all on screen is wonderful. Combined with a second set that monitors the console and various access logs on my server, I can keep up to date with the current state of affairs of my network with a simple hide others from the finder.Thh ability to have multiple sets is really handy, and with the opacity setting of the various panes I can still see the desktop picture. Color coding the sets makes it easy to identify which system I'm looking at. Very slick.Now all I need to test out is if I can run Xback behind it (slightly disturbing idea) and to find a useful graphic online to try out the graphic option.My only desire is the option to define whether a pane should implement word wrap or not, but that's a minor beef. I've been running GeekTool for a few weeks now and must say this is one nifty little piece of software.having said that, the geektool menu seems a little twitchy, sometimes not highlighting properly, and when it's enabled the finder doesn't always open a new window when clicked in the dock. (it's taken me this long to make that connection and is not a big deal.) of course turning the menu off is as simple as clicking a checkbox, so this hardly warrants a serious complaint.also, when playing games that change the screen resolution things get moved around and don't automatically return to their original positions. Disabling and re-enabling seems to take care of it though, so again, not a biggie.overall this is really good.
Two thumbs up. Highly recommended. One of the few add-ons i'm really attached to.
