[Idea] Maybe add an example with wtfutil?

[GideonWolfe]

wtfutil is an awesome utility that lets you create static terminal dashboards to fit your needs.

You can place different "widgets" in a desired arrangement. You could use the "command runner" agent to display the output of stonks commands in a dashboard format!

I did the same thing here.

Good idea :)

Here is a sample config of wtfutil

wtf:
  colors:
    background: black
    border:
      focusable: darkslateblue
      focused: blue
      normal: gray
    checked: yellow
    highlight: 
      fore: black
      back: gray
    rows:
      even: yellow
      odd: white
  grid:
    # How _wide_ the columns are, in terminal characters. In this case we have
    # four columns, each of which are 35 characters wide.
    columns: [33, 33, 33]
    # How _high_ the rows are, in terminal lines. In this case we have four rows
    # that support ten line of text and one of four.
    rows: [20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20, 20]
  refreshInterval: 1

  mods:
    tech:
      type: cmdrunner
      args: ["tsla", "intc", "--theme", "dot"]
      cmd: "stonks"
      enabled: true
      position:
        top: 0
        left: 0
        height: 2
        width: 3
      refreshinterval: 30
      title: "🤖 Tech"
    financial:
      type: cmdrunner
      args: ["jpm", "v", "--theme", "dot"]
      cmd: "stonks"
      enabled: true
      position:
        top: 2
        left: 0
        height: 2
        width: 3
      refreshinterval: 30
      title: "💰 Financial"

It ends up looking like

While I was setting up stonks, I noticed that setting a "default value" for the line type does not work, hence why I launched with --theme dot.

Additionally, I suggest the config be moved to $HOME/.config/stonks/config.yml or something similar. This would allow multiple configurations to coexist without polluting the base $XDG_CONFIG directory.

Thanks for the sample, I think I'll add something like that to the README. The issue with setting the default theme should have been fixed in the master branch if you want to try reinstall.
