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.

# Conky, a system monitor embedding into the Linux desktop.
#
# Compiz may decorate the embedded Conky window.
# To avoid that a shadow is drawn around the Conky information:
# 1. Open the CompizConfig manager (System > Settings > CompizConfig manager).
# 2. Choose Effects > Window decoration
# 3. Set the rule to the following: (any) & !(class=Conky).
# It means: decorate any window but not those with class Conky.
