Teal / Launcher

Make RETUI speak your language.

Setting names tell you that a line can be changed. They do not show what the line could become. This is the practical version: start with something that works, change one piece, and keep going until the launcher sounds like yours.

Build your own clock

Make the hour large, keep the date compact, or ask RETUI to write the time in words.

[size=40]HH:mm[/size]%n[size=14]EEEE, d MMMM[/size]

[size=28]{clock_words}[/size]

#00FF88[size=40]HH:mm[/size]

Use @ to keep several time formats in one setting:

HH:mm:ss@EEEE, d MMMM@{clock_words}

The corresponding values can then be inserted with %t, %t1, or %t2.

HH / hh

24-hour or 12-hour clock.

mm / ss / a

Minutes, seconds, and AM or PM.

EEE / EEEE

Short or full weekday.

d / MMM / MMMM / yyyy

Day, short month, full month, and year.

%n

Start a new line.

Rewrite the command prompt

The session line can be almost invisible or proudly terminal-shaped.

%p

%u@%d:%p

[%u on %d] %p

%u

Username.

%d

Device name.

%p

Current path.

Decide how command history reads

Input and output are separate formats. Keep them clean, or timestamp everything.

[%t] %p %i

[%t] %o

%i

The command you entered.

%o

Command output.

%p

The input prefix.

%t

The current output-time format.

%n

A new line.

Build a battery readout

A simple percentage is enough. The conditional form lets charging and unplugged states speak differently.

BAT %v%

%(CHARGING /BAT )%v%

The value before / appears while charging; the value after it appears while unplugged.

Show RAM your way

RAM %avgb GB / %totgb GB

RAM FREE: %av%

%avgb / %avmb

Available RAM in GB or MB.

%av%

Available RAM percentage.

%totgb / %totmb

Total RAM in GB or MB.

TB, KB, and byte variants are available too.

Create a storage meter

DISK %iavgb GB / %itotgb GB

FREE %iav%%

%iavgb / %itotgb

Available and total internal storage in GB.

%iav%

Available internal-storage percentage.

%eavgb / %etotgb

Available and total external storage in GB.

%eav%

Available external-storage percentage.

TB, MB, KB, and byte variants follow the same pattern.

Make network status conditional

Show the Wi-Fi name when connected, fall back to mobile data, and admit when neither is available.

%(WIFI: %wn/%[MOBILE: %dt/OFFLINE])

%(yes/no)

Wi-Fi connected.

%[yes/no]

Mobile data enabled.

%{yes/no}

Bluetooth enabled.

%wn

Wi-Fi network name.

%ip4 / %ip6

IPv4 or IPv6 address.

%dt

Mobile network type.

%w1 / %d1 / %b1

Wi-Fi, mobile data, or Bluetooth as on or off.

Numbered state variants can return 1/0, on/off, ON/OFF, true/false, or TRUE/FALSE.

Personalize app events

Launch history can preserve the app label as written or force it to lowercase.

OPENED %L

%l%n%p

%l / %L

Lowercase or original app label in launch history.

%p

Package name.

%a

Activity name.

Install, update, and removal messages use %l for the app label and %p for the package.

+ INSTALLED %l [%p]
~ UPDATED %l
- REMOVED %p

Ready-made starting points

The defaults are only the first sentence. Format strings are how RETUI starts sounding like the person using it.
