In theory, this may fail to compile on ancient systems that don't have IPv6 types (struct
sockaddr_in6 et al.) available. If it turns out that such systems are still in use, the best way
to solve it would be to provide dummy declarations via configure tests.
The bug reporter asks if it is possible to add a variable giving the "current
user time" only, since the variable user_times reports the times for ALL
logged users.
AFAIK, the only info one can gather inside conky, is the login time for the
tty connected to conky's standard input.
This commit adds support for it (it should work on any posix compliant *nix).
Note that in coherence with the definition, the variable is called
conky_user_time (for a single user stand-alone machine used as a desktop
this would be the "current" user time).
This was really creepy stuff. Last updated in April, 2006 to work with
kernels > 2.6.12. I consider this "fobar" (fscking obsolete beyond all
recognition) and doubt anyone still uses this. If you do, blame me. :)
All ERR()'s are renamed to NORM_ERR() and box to mbox so that they don't
clash with things in ncurses.h .
Ncurses is enabled by default when building conky but can be disabled with
--disable-ncurses .
At the moment configure doesn't check if ncurses is actually available.
I'm adding support for ncurses so that we can make as much things as possible
that are only available in X11 also available in console in the future.
The alias option was broken by fb8ccd7a05,
and it seems like trying to make it work again will only result in
breakage for env var substitution anyway.
Added support for X alignment across multi-lined objects (i.e., using
$alignr with $exec). This may be a bit buggy. Disabled OpenMP code
until GCC's implementation stabilizes (it's causing too many problems).
A couple Lua API changes.
First of all, we may or may not agree, but I consider reverting my
commits without prior discussion as a minimum unpolite.
I also don't like sites that oblige to register, thats the very reason
why I went with noaa first (and why I use that myself).
Howver, weather.com has a couple of nice features forom an user
viewpoint:
1. Their icons can be used to add a visual quality to the weather
report.
2. They have forecast data, which is not possible to have with noaa
(using TAF its an option, but its going to be very difficult and will
be limited in time and scope).
Nobody is obliged to do anything, people who likes noaa will use noaa,
people that don't mind register or wants the additional benefit will use
weather.com.
Having libxms2 as a dragged depends is, first of all, also with other
options (rss and eve), second we can try to work around it with an
additional compilation flag if really deemed necessary.
This reverts commit d872562942.
