Hi! i have been trying a lot of scripts all day, but i couldnt make them work :( :(
as a example:
top -orsize -FR -l1 | grep % | grep -v Load | grep -v COMMAND | cut -c 7-19,64-69

i copied this in the command box but i cant make it work, i have the same problem with ALL the scripts. I just can make them work for example if i just write top, or date, but nothing more complicated.
Im running geektools 3.0 rc5 on snow leopard.
I hope u can help me!
Thx!!
