Displaying your todo.txt file on your desktop is a simple task thanks to Conky. The most basic code to display the todo.txt file is: <code>${execpi 10 todo.sh -p ls}</code> This will cause your todo.txt file to be displayed as it would from the command line, minus the color, and it will refresh every 10 seconds. Using the grep command you can get a bit more fancy and color code your todo items. Displaying your todo.txt file on your desktop is a simple task thanks to Conky.

Unless you want your todo list to be truncated, you will also need to play with the <code>text_buffer_size variable</code> in your .conkyrc file. The default setting is 128 bytes, but I found that to be inadequate for my todo.txt file, so I raised the variable to 1024 bytes. The higher your <code>text_buffer_size</code>, the more resources that Conky will use, so raise sparingly.
