2014-09-16Locks: Rework to avoid unnecessary display reopeningAnton Vorontsov
The extremely useful "Locks" plugin eats quite a lot of CPU (>2% here on a old-ish laptop), unfortunately. The plug-in unnecessary reopens the display, which is quite expensive operation. It results into 16 syscalls: socket(PF_LOCAL) -> connect(sun_path=@"/tmp/.X11-unix/X0"}) -> getpeername() -> uname() -> access(".Xauthority") -> open(".Xauthority") -> fstat() -> mmap() -> read() -> close() -> munmap() -> getsockname() -> fcntl(F_SETFD) -> fcntl(F_SETFL) -> shutdown() -> close() This is almost half of all the syscalls that we ought to execute for the plug-in to work. Now, considering the useful work and that "Locks" runs every 200 milliseconds, it gives us >300 syscalls (and a lot more wake-ups) per second. This commit fixes the reopening issue, effectively halving the CPU consumption (down to ~1%). The patch also makes it easier to implement event-driven indicators that will reduce the idle CPU consumption to 0.

2014-09-14Add DynamicString as an alternative to vbars.Alexander Shabalin
* DynamicString is an Int -> String which takes a value from 0..8 and produces a string with this value embedded. Usefull for replacing vbars with icons: an icon per one of 9 states. * API is similar to that of vbar. * Default parser of DynamicString produces a function of `i` to a string that replaces all occurences of "%%" with `show i`

2014-06-27Fix for CPU monitor on long-running systemsRobert J. Macomber
After running long enough, the numbers in /proc/stat get big enough that they will not fit in a Float without loss of precision, which leads to erratic results such as reporting "NaN%" CPU usage. This commit simply keeps the numbers integral until producing the final percentage result.
2014-06-09Allow user to define punctuation.Conner McDaniel
I'd like to be able to choose which punctuation to use. All my other xmobar plugins use a colon and a space (e.g. `B: 100%` for battery), but this one leaves the space out (e.g. `E:1`) which is mildly annoying. It would be nice to let the user choose if he/she would like to use something other than a colon or to add extra whitespace.
