Edit rc.lua:

vicious.register(musicbox, gnarly.cmus, 
  function(widget, T)
    if T["{error}"] then return "error: " .. T["{status}"] end
    if T["{status}"] == "stopped" or T["{status}"] == "not running" then 
      return string.format("♫ %s", T["{status_symbol}"]) 
    end

    return string.format("♫  %s %s %s %s", 
                            T["{status_symbol}"],
                            T["{song}"],
                            T["{remains_pct}"],
                            T["{CRS}"]
                        )
  end, 2)

vicious.register(mdirbox, gnarly.mdir, 
    function(widget, mailboxes)

      _t    = {}
      count = 0
      for k, v in pairs(mailboxes) do
        table.insert(_t, "{" .. k .. " => " .. v .. "}")
        count = count + 1
      end
      if count > 0 then
        return join(_t, " ")
      else
        return "No new mail."
      end

    end, 1, "/home/noah*/mail/noah*@*.com")

That will produce a cmus status line like the following:

♫ > Neil Young & Crazy Horse .. Ragged Glory .. F*!#In' Up 92% CR

And will print out some maildir labels with associated unread message counts:

{@todo => 3} {work => 5} {amazon => 2}
