Since we have deterministic device names in Linux, these strings are a
much better default in the i3status config than "eth0" and "wlan0" (what
we used before).
In many public WiFis, the 2.4 GHz wireless band is slow due to
congestion, while there is still plenty of bandwidth available on the
5 GHz area. So when debugging wireless issues it's convenient to have
i3status display the frequency of the access point that the interface is
connected to.
This patch adds support for the %frequency tag for wireless interfaces,
so for example:
format_up = "WLAN: %essid - %quality / %frequency"
would result in:
"WLAN: eduroam - 074% / 2.4 GHz"
This patch enables users to define "align" and "min_width" options
right in the i3status module config sections.
Specifically this patch:
* Adds macros for the two new options that are used in the option
definitions. As the min_width option can take either a string or a
number, a custom type has been added along with a corresponding callback
function that parses the provided value (and provides input validation).
The align option also uses a callback for input validation
* Expands all module config option definitions to include the new
options
* Extends the SEC_CLOSE_MAP() macro to generate the JSON for the new
options as necessary
* Updates the manpage to explain the new options
This patch adds the ability to customize the separator that is placed
between modules.
Specifically this patch:
* adds the "separator" general directive
* moves the definition of the default separator for the different
output formats (excluding color formatting) to src/i3status.c
* updates the SEC_CLOSE_MAP macro to disable the separator for the
i3bar output format if the separator directive dictates so
* changes print_seperator() in src/output.c to take a separator
parameter in order to disable the output of the separator if
the separator is empty and to use the provided separator
otherwise
* updates the manpage to explain the new directive
- Temperature sensors can now set a 'max_threshold' value to color the output red if exceeded.
- Allow for arbitrary temperature sensors nodes to be selected with 'path' on OpenBSD.
The battery threshold can now be configured as type "time" or
"percentage", but defaults to "time" to prevent unexpected behavior.
Also, low_threshold was set to a more reasonable default of 30.
