Hello, i3 community! I have recently released luastatus v0.3.0 with a
lot of new stuff; hopefully somebody will find it interesting:
https://github.com/shdown/luastatus
luastatus is a universal status bar content generator. It allows the
user to configure the way the data from plugins is processed and shown,
with Lua.
Its main feature is that the content can be updated immediately as some
event occurs, be it a change of keyboard layout, active window title,
volume or a song in your favorite music player (provided that there is
a plugin for it) — a thing rather uncommon for tiling window managers.
It also avoids heavy forking, which is also a common issue of status
bar content generators, affecting performance and power consumption.
