Dear all,
I'm looking for a command-line alternative to xfce4-genmon [1]. The
latter takes a command (executable), executes it every specified
period and displays the output in Xfce's panel. I'm looking for a
small utility (script) that can do this in the console: take a
command, re-run it regularly, print the output. Any suggestions?

Thank you,
Liviu
