How does one display a configuration parameter/setting?
Thanks for the help.
You don't display parameters or settings, you display the value of a variable. Read the conky manuals to learn how to use it. Don't worry about changing the parameters. You can open a terminal to start conky by using the command: conky. You can close it out by using the command: killall conky. Back and forth as you test different settings.
pa·ram·e·ter
a numerical or other measurable factor forming one of a set that defines a system or sets the conditions of its operation.
var·i·a·ble
a symbolic name associated with a value and whose associated value may be changed.
