Indicator-SysMonitor - v0.8.3
===================
An Application Indicator showing cpu temperature, memory, network speed, cpu usage, public IP address and internet connection status .

Works with Unity, Xubuntu, Gnome-Shell + app-indicator extension together with any other desktop environments that support AppIndicators.

Also works with the Budgie-Desktop

Offers the possibility to run your own command and display its output.

----

## Custom scripts

Create your own scripts (for example in bash).  Give the script execute permission (chmod +x scriptname)

A script must output one line of text - e.g. using "echo" in bash

The indicator can change the icon being displayed by recognising the output of a sensor "USE_ICON:full_path_to_.svg"

## Set the display order of the indicator

To force the indicator to appear on the left-side of all indicators you must use a override file as described here:
