+dwmgetstatus
+============
+
+The status bar text of **dwm** is stored in the WM_NAME X11 property of the
+root window, which is managed by dwm. It can be easily retrieved using
+standard Unix tools.
+
+Below is the script to do this:
+
+	#!/bin/sh
+
+	xprop -root -f WM_NAME "8u" \
+		| sed -n -r 's/WM_NAME\(STRING\) = \"(.*)\"/\1/p'
+
