- Interval: interval in seconds after which the command will be
            executed again

- Maximum width: command output will be truncated to this number of
                 characters (see COMMAND OUTPUT)

- Show icon: enable display of an icon near the command output

COMMAND OUTPUT
--------------

Simple:

"Maximum width" characters and displayed on the panel.

GKeyFile:

If the output starts with "[Command]", the output is interpreted as
GKeyFile. Valid keys are:

- Output
  Required. Value will be parsed as pango markup and displayed on the
  panel. Truncation to "Maximum Width" is not applied.

- Tooltip
  Optional: When set, the value will be used as tooltip instead of
  the default (the command) and will be displayed, when cursor is
  moved over the applet.

- Icon
  Optional: Filename of an icon to show, when "Show icon" is enabled.
