I couldn't find it anywhere.
I appreciate it.

Why not use Conky? Tells you this and a lot more.

Yes I already have Conky, but I need the script for QBW or DCEW to have it as a widget on my homescreen.

+1, Conky is simply a must have !


There's also the nice SysteminfoWidget to see the cpu and memory usage on the desktop :-)

Your Best Bet is to use a widget for this. Either Queen Bee Widget, (if you are a pro) or Desktop Command Execution (Soft Start). Both available in the Repositories.

Follow this page of the WIKI for Desktop Command Execution (Memory Usage)

Try the "free" command.

Thanks, I've already had a look on the DCEW (desktop command execution widget) scripts WIKI but I didn't find the script that actually produces a percent value. @fareed_Xtreme yes my aim is to use QBW but I've gotta find the script at first.

free |grep Mem|awk '{print $3 / $2 * 100 "%"}'

For swap, simply replace Mem with Swap.

But don't forget, the total amount of memory in use isn't the same as the total memory minus memory available for other processes. Some of it may be cache or buffers (as you'll see from the raw "free" output). Your OS is happy to dump whatever's in cache of buffers if it's needed for another process.
