• client/server infrastructure and prototype for linux only (so far): - requires libdexter (http://sourceforge.net/projects/libdexter) and the dxt-sysinfo plugin (svn only at the moment).
• new config items: - dexter_client yes/no - dexter_server yes/no - dexter_config /path/to/libdexter/config (default: $HOME/.dexterrc) - own_window_class (default: Conky) - replaces wm_class_name - own_window_title (default: - conky)
• removed config items: - wm_class_name (use own_window_class, same function)
• configure changes: --disable-network (default=yes) with auto-detection for libdexter. - remove useless --enable-proc-uptime (PROC_UPTIME never referenced). HAVE_SYSINFO and others determine if /proc/uptime is used. - silently disable xft, double-buffer and xdamage if no x11. - change enable/disable labels to reflect defaults accurately. - simplified compile-based checks for sysinfo/getloadavg and by moving them into AC_CHECK_FUNCS.
• allow decorated, own_window=yes windows to be given input focus by WM: - do not pass button clicks through to desktop in this scenario as conky immediately loses focus.
