If you want an empty black line simply enter a <space> without anything else into a line

In the screenshot I used _____ (underscores), guess this is what you mean with black separating line.

I modified the script to show a certain symbol for each status returned:
★ = connected
♻ = connecting
☆ = offline
⚠ = closed

For anyone who wants to try see code below/attached file.
- put script in /home/user/
- in terminal do chmod +x /home/user/wabb.sh
- add in Billboard e.g. Wazapp {script:/home/user/wabb.sh}

Code:

#!/bin/sh

reply=""
if $(qdbus | grep org.tgalal.wazapp > /dev/null)
then
    reply=`qdbus org.tgalal.wazapp /org/maemo/contextkit/Wazapp/Online org.maemo.contextkit.Property.Get | sed -n 1p`
fi

case $reply in
online) reply="★" ;;
connecting) reply="♻" ;;
offline) reply="☆" ;;
*) reply="⚠" ;;
esac

echo -n $reply

While it does work, the script based approach seems to be a bit slow with Billboard (at least compared to network status change that is shown in real-time)
It can take quite a while until a changed status is shown.
This is obviously the time gap between Wazapp status change and next time the script is triggered by Billboard.

But its definitely a nice way for monitoring if Wazapp is still running fine in background or if there is an (with recent versions pretty rare

) issue...

Oh and btw, attached screenshot not only uses coderus Wazapp monitoring script but also includes another nice example of the possibilities and potential of this amazing app.
EmaNymton added Billboard integration to the latest version of his MeeGoal app.
With a simple toggle you can add the latest/upcoming match of your favorite football team to Billboard and of course standing is updated every x minutes

Yes, its possible, simply add {{color}} in front of reply, while "color" can be red, cyan, green, blue, magenta and yellow.
Like this:

reply="{{color}}<replyvalue>"

No matter what I chose to put in it, it shows for only a second and then disappears. I have rebooted twice. I have no tweaks or modifications to anything like that that could conflict.
UPDATE: It was the green text choice problem....that's the color I like best. Hope it gets fixed.

It doesn't work, i edited the file on my Windows pc, is that the problem?. Thanks.

PD: it worked for a moment, but now it isn't, i don't know why.
PD2: Ok, this seems like a joke, but it works (but sometimes it shows nothing for a moment).
