OSDsh is a a little program that overlays system information using the 2.0.1 version of the XOSD library. OSDsh was at first based on osdd but grew out of control as any good beast should, and got some features added.
Aditionally, it understands some kind of commands that let you change the position, font and color of each display individually and start and stop them as needed.
This commands are important because you can pipe a file of commands to it to change every setting on the fly...and that gives us THEMES!!!.
Of course if you dont want to pipe them directly, you can always use the companion programs to do it for you. (osdctl and tkosdshconfig).
