Conky not in list if first line is not `conky.config`

[Lowrida]

I noticed that some of my conky do not show up in the list if the first line is not conky.config.
For example i have some conky's that first print a version and execute a bash script once.

print("\n\27[33m----[ Spectrum Equalizer v1.8 ]----\27[m\n")
os.execute("./cava-loop gocava &")
conky.config = {
...

So i guess CM only searches for the first line that's not a comment and then decide if it's a config or not.
Can this be changed?

I fixed it by adding this at the top. It's a comment, but CM2 thinks it's the line it is looking for.

--[[
 conky.config = {
]]--

Btw, is this git still being maintained??

Yes.

I can maintain some things from time-to-time.

The interesting code is here:

conky-manager2/src/Main.vala

Line 882 in e718518

public ConkyRC(string rc_file_path) {

but, if the file is lua based, and you have --comments, or multi-line modern lua comments that is fine. If you have #old comments like bash then this is another story. But there is multiple parsing technologies.

Yes, you have an easy solution to trick the system! :)

Thanks, i will keep with my nifty trick then! ;)
