18 2011-12-27 i3status 2.4
20 • Support wifi, cpu usage, volume, disk usage on FreeBSD
21 • Don’t exit, but display an error when CPU temperature/usage/load is not
23 • manpage: load format is %1min %5min %15min
24 • Don’t use a default order, so that config files can use += everywhere
25 • Interpret configfiles case-insensitive
26 • battery: implement path option for batteries with non-standard paths
28 2011-07-21 i3status 2.3
30 • config search order is now ~/.i3status.conf, ~/.config/i3status/config,
31 /etc/i3status/config, then /etc/xdg/i3status/config
32 • battery: use POWER_NOW if CURRENT_NOW is not available (linux >= 2.6.36)
33 • use kill(0, pid) instead of /proc to check if a process is alive
34 • cache DNS query results also if there is no IPv6 connectivity
35 • implement the 'path' option for cpu_temperature
36 • add cpu_usage module
37 • automatically detect the output format unless configured specifically
38 • Bugfix: get time at the beginning of the loop
39 • Bugfix: respect locale settings (for %c in date format)
40 • debian: use [linux-any] in dependencies (Closes: #634491)

44 • Implement a discordian date module (like ddate(1))
45 • Implement ALSA volume support
46 • disk: implement %avail (different from %free with regard to the reserved
47 space of your filesystem)
48 • wireless: display quality relative to the wireless maximum quality.
49 • wireless: display connection speed (bitrate)
50 • wireless: custom colors for link quality
51 • Bugfix: Treat an interface as 'down' when it cannot be found in
53 • Bugfix: Correctly check for interface up/down status
55 2010-04-10 i3status 2.1

58 • ipv6: cache DNS query lookups (for finding the K root server)
59 • disk: also round when printing TB
60 • wireless: display no IP instead of (null)
61 • instead of a relative sleep(1), sleep until the full second
62 • colorize ethernet output
63 • use cap_net_admin instead of running i3status as root for getting
65 • ipv6: don't require a title for config option
66 • ipv6: provide format strings for ipv6 up and ipv6 down
68 2009-10-27 i3status 2.0
