About Monitor Bar
Monitor Bar draws a row of coloured, powerline-style segments in the menu bar, borrowing the look of the vim-airline status line and the bobthefish fish theme. The segments report battery, disk, memory, CPU, network bandwidth and Wi-Fi, in compact, normal or extra-wide layouts.
It is a small single-purpose utility. The latest release is 1.2 from December 2023, which the author lists as tested on macOS Sonoma 14.1.2 on both Apple silicon and Intel.
