Of course I forgot about this, who would have guessed...
Here's a simple example xml file that gives some network stats:
Code:
<screen>
<name>Network stats</name>
<action>
<id>Core.NextScreen</id>
<delay>10000</delay>
</action>
<item type="text" x="0" y="0">
<scrolltype>left</scrolltype>
<textpos>left</textpos>
<fieldsize>16</fieldsize>
<textdata>Network stats</textdata>
<refresh>500</refresh>
</item>
<item type="plugintext" x="0" y="1">
<scrolltype>left</scrolltype>
<textpos>left</textpos>
<fieldsize>13</fieldsize>
<varid>NetStats.DownloadSpeed0</varid>
<refresh>500</refresh>
</item>
<item type="plugintext" x="0" y="2">
<scrolltype>left</scrolltype>
<textpos>left</textpos>
<fieldsize>13</fieldsize>
<varid>NetStats.DownloadSpeed1</varid>
<refresh>500</refresh>
</item>
<item type="plugintext" x="0" y="3">
<scrolltype>left</scrolltype>
<textpos>left</textpos>
<fieldsize>13</fieldsize>
<varid>NetStats.DownloadSpeed2</varid>
<refresh>500</refresh>
</item>
<item type="plugintext" x="20" y="1">
<scrolltype>left</scrolltype>
<textpos>left</textpos>
<fieldsize>13</fieldsize>
<varid>NetStats.DownloadSpeed3</varid>
<refresh>500</refresh>
</item>
</screen>
It shows the current download speed in KB/s of 4 different network adapters in the system. Of course you might not have this many or you might have more so edit to suit your needs. You can look at the log.txt file in your lcdinfo directory for all the NetStats.* variables available.
In the /screens/128x64/ directory of your lcdinfo install you should also have some 128x64 example screens that also have background images.
Is this of any help ?
