Connected time
Added by Daniel Kempton about 3 years ago
I want to add a connection timer to my statusbar.
Here is the code I am using:
on *:START:{
statusbar -a duration "" "" Duration : $duration($onlineserver)
statusbar -a version "" "" Version : $version ( $+ $builddate $+ )
}
Three questions:
1. Why does duration appear after version?
2. How do I get it to update the statusbar when I change servers - ie. I am connected to more than one server at a time. The statusbar correctly reflects the correct server.
3. How do I get the statusbar to update duration?
Thanks.

1. I am not able to reproduce duration appearing after version with this script.
2. The text you add to a Statusbar item is a fixed text, if you want a new text, you'll have to change it.
In this case you want to update the duration, so you will have to use a timer, example:
on *:START:{
statusbar -a duration "" "" Duration : $duration($onlineserver)
statusbar -a version "" "" Version : $version ( $+ $builddate $+ )
.timer 0 1 updateduration
}
alias -l updateduration { statusbar -g duration $duration($onlineserver) }
Depending on what interval you set the timer to (every second in this example), you can also make it update the text when the active window changes.
Example:
on *:ACTIVE:*:updateduration
