DESCRIPTION

       Dzen  is  a  general-purpose  messaging  and  notification program for X11, desigend to be
       scriptable in any language and integrate well with window  managers  like  dwm,  wmii  and
       xmonad though it will work with any windowmanger.

       Dzen  expects  the  status  message  on  its  standard input, and uses a custom formatting
       language for colors and several other features (like bar meters and such). See README  for
       detailed usage and scripting instructions.
