I want to create an indicator for LXDE Panel that prints my GPU temperature by using the following command:

watch -n 5 nvidia-smi --query-gpu = temperature.gpu --format = csv, noheader

I just want that mini application prints that number every 5 seconds or 2. What tools do I need to create it? How I can start? Thanks in advance.

I think that indicator-sysmonitor will work under LXDE. If so, you could install it and then write a custom script which performs the GPU temperature lookup.

The gist of installing the indicator and writing a custom script are here.
