Install

You need install conky and configure conkyrc first.

Then, adding command to your note config in conkyrc:

execpi 1 cat <notes current page location>

Example (using conky-colors):

############
# - Note - #
############
# type "ct help" in terminal for info
${voffset 4}${font Liberation Sans:style=Bold:size=8}NOTE $stippled_hr${font}
${voffset 4}${execpi 1 cat ~/.conkycolors/notes/current | fold -w 38 | sed 's/\[ \]/\[     \]/' | sed 's/\[X\]/\[ X \]/' | sed 's/\] /\] ${color2}/' | sed 's/$/${color}/' | sed 's/ X /${color0}${font ConkyColors:size=11}p${font}${color}${voffset -5}/'}
##########

Finally, you need config note command:

sudo chmod +x note
sudo mv note /bin/

That's it! Now you can use note command

note -h

Of course, you need run conky to see result

conky -c <path to your conkyrc>

conky-colors is recommended, use it for easier life :)
