dzen2-dbar - simple gadget that you can use in combination with dzen to display a progressbar.

dzen2-dbar [-w characters ] [-s symbol ] [-min minvalue ] [-max maxvalue ] [-l string ] [-nonl]

dbar is an application that generates semi graphical progress meters, from some values you supply to it.

See the usage examples for a description of the expected input format.

A summary of options is included below.

	-max		Value to be considered 100% (default: 100)
	-min		Value to be considered 0% (default: 0)
	-w		Number of charcaters to be considered 100% in the bar (default: 25 )
	-s		Symbol represeting the percentage value in the bar (default: = )
	-l		label to be prepended to the bar (default: ’’ )
	-nonl		no new line, don’t put ’0 at the end of the bar (default: do print ’0)

Static 0% and 100% mark or single value input:

Command: echo 25 | dzen2-dbar -m 100 -l Sometext
Output: Sometext 25% [====== ]

If your 100% mark changes dynamically or 2-values input:

Command: echo "50 150" | dzen2-dbar
Output: 33% [======== ]

If your value range is not between [0, maxval] or 3-values input:

Command: echo "50 -25 150" | dzen2-dbar
Output: 43% [=========== ]
