+% xmobar - Release notes
+% Jose A. Ortega Ruiz
+
+## Version 0.12 (Dec 12, 2010)
+
+xmobar has a new [maintainer], a new [website], a new [mailing
+list] and uses a new [source code repository].
+
+Many thanks to Andrea Rossato, xombar's author and maintainer so far,
+for creating xmobar in the first place, and for giving me the chance
+to become its maintainer.
+
+[website]: http://projects.haskell.org/xmobar/
+[mailing list]: http://projects.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xmobar
+[source code repository]: https://github.com/jaor/xmobar
+[maintainer]: http://hacks-galore.org/jao/
+
+_New features_
+
+ - Window borders: configuration options `border` and `borderColor`
+ allow drawing borders around xmobar's window.
+ - MPD: updated to libmpd 1.5. New fields `ppos` (playlist position)
+ and `remaining` (remaining time). New configuration options to
+ specify MPD's host, user name and password.
+ - New Monitor option (`-P`) to enable displaying the `%` sign in
+ percentages; the sign is now never included by default.
+ - New 'run once' commands, by specifying a 0 refresh rate in `Run
+ Com` ([issue 26]).
+ - Battery monitor: new `watts` and `timeleft` fields (Petr Rockai),
+ and specific arguments to control coloring and thresholds of the
+ former.
+ - MultiCPU monitor: new `auto*` fields that automatically detect all
+ present CPUs (Ben Boeckel).
+ - CpuFreq monitor uses just one decimal digit for GHz values (Petr
+ Rockai).
+ - New compilation flag, `all_extensions`.
+ - Documentation and website updates.
+
+_Bug fixes_
+
+ - [issue 23]: Wireless monitor is now compatible with iwlib 29.
+ - [issue 24]: Swap monitor's used ratio display fixed.
+ - [issue 25]: Percentages only include `%` if requested using `-P`.
+ - [issue 31]: MPD monitor now respects `-W` argument.
+ - Fixes in CPU frequency formatting, string alignment and colour
+ boxes in monitors (Norbert Zeh).
+ - TopMem and TopProc now use the `-L` and `-H` options correctly for
+ memory template fields.
