Modify lm-sensors on Ubuntu Server 10.10?

Hello,
I have installed and configured lm-sensors on my server (Ubuntu 10.10)
When I type sensors I get a jumble of information that seems roughly correct. My problem here is that I want to tidy this output up.
My output it as follows.

Code:

coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0:      +51.0°C  (high = +84.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

coretemp-isa-0001
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 1:      +55.0°C  (high = +84.0°C, crit = +100.0°C)

it8718-isa-0290
Adapter: ISA adapter
in0:         +1.14 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)
in1:         +1.63 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)
in2:         +3.33 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)
in3:         +3.04 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)
in4:         +0.62 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +2.10 V)
in5:         +4.08 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)   ALARM
in6:         +4.08 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)   ALARM
in7:         +3.07 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +4.08 V)
Vbat:        +3.20 V
fan1:       2360 RPM  (min =    0 RPM)
fan2:       1869 RPM  (min =    0 RPM)
temp1:       -55.0°C  (low  = +127.0°C, high = +127.0°C)  sensor = thermistor
temp2:        -2.0°C  (low  = +127.0°C, high = +127.0°C)  sensor = thermistor
temp3:       +26.0°C  (low  = +127.0°C, high = +127.0°C)  sensor = thermal di                                                                             ode
cpu0_vid:   +1.325 V

What I want is to remove all unneeded values and only show the CPU tempuratures, Motherboard and Fan RPM.

I also want to clean up the value, such as removing the strange 0° at the end of the temps.

How can i go about this?
Any help will be much appreciated.

Specify the value you are looking for (Core 0)

<echo>$( sensors | grep -A 1 'Core 0' | cut -c13-21)</echo>

This will give you +51.0°C. The count starts at the beginning and end of the value you want to get.Trim the width to suit your needs. I use this with an XML file in Cairo-Dock and the Doncky app to display CPU & GPU temps.
