NvThermometer Screenlet

NvThermometer Screenlet is an impressive network-based information utility tailor-made for Nvidia GPUs. It not only provides a plethora of data derived from the NV-CONTROL X extension, but it also displays temperatures (if available), which is a crucial aspect. One of the advantages of NvThermometer Screenlet is that it operates at high speeds and without helper apps. Additionally, if multiple GPUs are present, NvThermometer Screenlet can display them.

The software's interface is fully customizable, allowing users to choose from several color themes or configure it to their liking. Its appearance is comparable to that of a shaded widget, and it can employ an image to tile the background, enhancing the aesthetics.

Screenlets, on the other hand, is a duo of widget engine and independently-developed widget applications. The engine works primarily on X11-based compositing window managers, with the Compiz (under Linux) architecture being the most notable one.

Prior to version 0.0.14, all screenlets were written in Python and drawn in Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). However, in later versions, support for web widgets, which are written in HTML, JavaScript, and CSS, similar to widgets for Apple Inc.'s Dashboard, was introduced.
