Hi, I hope i'm not off-topic. I'm posting here because i haven't been able to contact Andrea, xmobar's maintainer, and i thought some of you might be interested in a couple of add-ons to xmobar that i've been hacking on: - two new monitors, MultiCpu and Disk, providing cpu usage for multicores and disk I/O speeds, respectively. - new options to all monitors to set maximum/minimum field widths and padding characters. The code is available in this darcs repo: http://darcs.hacks-galore.org/jao/xmobar which you can also browse on-line at http://darcs.hacks-galore.org/darcsweb/jao?r=xmobar;a=summary The additions are documented in the README file. Since this is my first Haskell hacking beyond tutorial snippets, i'm sure the code can be improved, so feel free to criticise it as deserved, or to ask for other improvements. Thanks! jao -- Humans think they are smarter than dolphins because we build cars and buildings and start wars etc., and all that dolphins do is swim in the water, eat fish and play around.
