My sensors output from terminal has 2 lines beginning temp1:
The first temp1: is my north bridge temp
The second temp:1 is my GPU
The 2 temp:1s are seperated by a few other lines.

I need to capture the first and ignore the second and vise versa to display these 2 temps in conky.
Thought there might be a simple way to grep a 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc instance of a word or phrase?

This is a test:

Hi,

I have these two lines in my .conkyrc file the shows the core temps of my dual core cpus. Change Temp-Core# to the name of the sensors u want to display and change {hwmon sensors} to the sensor's name you want to track.

HTH,

Yeah, that's hwmon. I want to use the output from 'sensors', 2 different approaches I believe. I bet there is a way to do it with grep,sed,awk. I haven't found it yet. Thanks.
