You can still use "#", just don't have it by itself.

yes.... no more conky lines like "#! system"... have to be "cbl system" ..
another thing: ibm sensors doesn't seems to work anymore... did i miss something? do i have to enable ibm support while compiling ?

Re: Package update: Conky 1.7.1.1
You can have "#!". As long as a character is right next to the "#" it will work:

This is not the case for me. Having #! even with the ! next to it, still doesn't work.

Try escaping like /#. I read about that at Arch Forums, dunno if you have to patch conky for that. Maybe they included it by now.
I'm so meta, even this acronym

I think you have to use a backslash. \# is what In did in the past and it worked. Or you could type out ${exec echo "#!"} if that floats your boat.

Why try to think outside the box, when we could just set the box on fire?
