Murphy hit me again: in my naive attempt to fix the clash between
ifblocks and objects parsing text objects due to the double use of the
'sub' field, I overlooked this problem with reusing the 'special_data'
field. So here comes the real thing (TM), donating ifblocks their own
field for pointing to the jump target.
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 problem with the original commit was that some session-managers set
stdin to /dev/null for the processes they launch, therefore the variable
wasn't very effective.
This commit change the variable conky_user_time to user_time.
This variable has a mandatory argument, a console identifier
(eg. tty7, pts/0, etc.).
Once called, this will list how long the user for the given console has been
logged in for.
This commit also allows multiple user_time to be specified for different
consoles, as well as correctly handle a conky restart.
the manpage says the hex color string should include the '#', but that's not true (not now,
anyway). Also, the syntax highlighting is wrong, but i don't know how to fix that.
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).
