About WatchWidget

UPDATE: This doesn't seem to work on modern Android phones any more. If you are interested in fixing that you can find the source at https://github.com/zond/watchwidget

This simple widget will periodically run a command or read the contents of a selected file in your device, apply a regular expression and replacement on the output (see the replaceAll method of String in Java) and show you the results.

Will not update while screen is off or device is sleeping.

Very useful if you want to watch /proc/loadavg, the output of "top -b -n 1" or "logcat -t 20".

The update interval, font size, font color and background color are all configurable.

Keywords: load top monitor view watch poll

Using it for quite some time to watch some directory contents and as a simple calendar with 'cal' command. Being flexibly customized, they fit to my color theme & style and don't eat too much energy. Sweet! Thanks to the dev!
