+# the quote and escape magic is required to get valid
+# JSON output, which is expected by i3bar (if you want
+# colors, that is. Otherwise plain text would be fine).
+# For colors, your i3status.conf should contain:
+# general {
+#   output_format = i3bar
+# }
+
+# i3 config looks like this:
+# bar {
+#   status_command measure-net-speed-i3status.bash
