Create your own real time color ticker for BTC price

[deltaray]

Hi, I run a *nix command line tip feed for twitter/identica/youtube and recently made a tutorial video for making your own color ticker for BTC pricing, rig temperature monitoring or whatever that you can put in a terminal window. I think you'll find it interesting:

I am also a miner, so you might see BTC related stuff from time to time on the feed. If you're into CLI stuff or looking to start (not a bad habit), I invite you to check it out.

So did anybody find this useful and setup a ticker on your desktop?

Have not tried it for the desktop but how about for a website? Could I configure it for that?

Perhaps you could just post the command and let us dissect it, after a few hints to gawk, and where the stream is coming from. Then your video will make better sense in context.
