2.2.10 - Thu Oct 26, 2006
-------------------------
* Hans de Goede patches: 1) handle sysfs sensors which represent themselves
as platform drivers (/sys/class/hwmon). 2) Add a libsensors sensor
monitor interface which will be used preferentially over sysfs if
libsensors is installed and sensors_init() on /etc/sensors.conf succeeds.
* Add --without-libsensors command line option to force using /sysfs
instead of libsensors for cases when running a new Linux sensor kernel
module that is not yet supported by libsensors. A fallback to /sysfs is
automatic when libsensors detects zero sensors.
* Linux sensor config names change with migration to libsensors, so attempt
to automatically do a conversion so user won't have to redo sensor
config. But this doesn't handle client/server runs so for these
sensor configs must be redone.
* Michael Buesch patch: Add PowerMac G5 Windfarm sensor monitor interface.
* David G. North patch: Add content length check to mbox mail checking to
get good mail counts even if there's a mal-formed mime content package.
* New Translation

o Christian Schmidt patch: add -pci- to sensor config compatibility fix.
o gkrellmd plugins didn't get initial update data.
o Don't limit mbmon detection to i386 architectures.
o Flush gtk events pending between closing and moving gkrellm so
window managers can get width updates before the move.
o Fix warnings from newer gcc.

GPL license compatibility issue.
* Stanislav Likavcan patch: add monitoring of ibm acpi sensors to linux.c.
* UI improvement in fs.c and mail.c config button sensitivities and labels.
* Bugfixes:
o Test for not force creating user mailbox did not consider a configured
mail fetch.
o gkrellmd server mail check was missing the gkrellmd_need_serve() call
and server/mail.c mailbox code needed syncing with src/mail.c.
o gkrellmd glib 1.2 g_file_test compatibility was broken.

an icon for task switching.
* Bugfixes:
o Christophe Barbe: fix mail.c X-Evolution flag decoding to use
proper "seen" bit for determining new/old email.
o Henrik Brix Andersen: use gtk_window_get_size() when calculating
_NET_WM_STRUT size so strut space can be resized when shutting gkrellm.
o Don't save new y_positions that are y packed and not user set (eg
preserve user positon when opening fs secondaries for > 10 seconds).
o Don't nest static function declarations inside of functions to fix
upcoming gcc 3.5 compile errors - from Art Haas.
o Sensor location menu wasn't recreated after the first config opening.
2.2.2 Fri Jul 16, 2004

------------------------
* Replace GdkFont text drawing with Pango.
* Add plugin capability to the gkrellmd server. Wrote demo5 plugin as a
tutorial on a client/server capable plugin.
* Minimize Pango drawing to get CPU usage down:
1) Draw chart text on a caching text layer.
2) Add a "scroll text" api to text decals where a Pango string is
drawn on a pixmap which can be srolled by setting the decal offset.
See the plugins and themes changelog for more info.
* linux.c reads temperatures from the hddtemp daemon so disk temperature
display can be consistent with other sensors (and detected by gkrellmd).
* Hajimu Umemoto: glib12 server Makefile, use `glib-config --libs glib
gmodule and initialize text extent in clock.c
* Sjoerd Simons: set the _NET_WM_STRUT property when dock type.
* Defer setting withdrawn state until after main window realize.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.28 - Fri Mar 5, 2004
-------------------------
* Bugfixes:
o Stephan Kapfinger <s.kapfinger--at--gmx.de> mail.c patch fixes bug
I introduced into the last release where parsing of mail launch
commands could fail.
2.1.27 - Sat Feb 28, 2004
-------------------------
* Handle changing sysfs sensor name format from xxx_inputN to xxxN_input.
* Patches:
o Kurt V. Hindenburg <khindenburg--at--cherrynebula.net> Consider only
.so, .la, and .dll files during plugin scan (avoid Gentoo .keep
ebuild files).
* Bugfixes:
o Use g_spawn_async_with_pipes() instead of popen() in mail.c so gkrellm
file descriptors won't be open in the mail monitor launched MUA.
2.1.26 - Mon Feb 23, 2004
-------------------------
* Patches:
o Frederick Bruckman <fredb--at--immanent.net> detect multiple CPUs
on NetBSD.
* Bugfixes:
o Andreas Liebe <liebe--at--hrz.tu-darmstadt.de> patch to solaris.c
prevents running out of fds on some SPARC servers.
o CPU and Net stats from 64 bit gkrellmd server overflowed on a 32
bit client.
o Changed Linux sysfs sensor temperature factor from 100 to 1000.
Those running Linux kernels >= 2.6.2 should now only need gkrellm
config temperature factors of 1.0. But those still running kernels
<= 2.6.1 may still need factor of 10 gkrellm config adjustments.
o $d should be %d typo in cs.po
2.1.25 - Tue Jan 20, 2004
-------------------------
* Hajimu UMEMOTO upgrades to the mail monitor:
o Added a STARTTLS option for SSL mail checking.
o Added NTLM authentication options for IMAP and POP3 and the required
SMP crypto functions in files ntlm.h and smb*.[ch] (these functions
are from fetchmail-6.2.5).
o Organized a separate protocol and authentication mechanism structure
to facilitate adding future authentication types.
* Bugfixes:
o lock out using initial bogus window positions from configure event to
avoid startup position errors.
o Matti Rendahl <matti--at--comedialabs.com> patch fixes uninitialized
MemShared variable which doesn't exist in Linux 2.6 /proc/meminfo.
o FS displayed "used" blocks/percentage should be function of b_free and
not b_avail to be consistent with df command. Change arg types of
gkrellm_fs_assign_fsusage_data() from gulong to glong as is in statfs()
so can display negative BSD b_avail values (like the BSD df command).
o Linux ACPI battery got confused on spurious kernel buggy remaining
capacity readings that were greater than full capacity.
o In client mode check for sysname changes at server reconnects in case
server was rebooted with different kernel.

2.1.23 - Wed Dec 17, 2003
-------------------------
* Hajimu UMEMOTO patch fixes mail check SSL implementation issues. Now
SSL is a connection protocol which can be selected for all remote mail
authorization types so there can be IMAP over SSL, POP3 over SSL, etc.

changes: set the run path for -lSM and -lICE, don't setgid kvm,
add -pthread for netbsd2, fix default manpath.
* Bugfixes:
o Use username instead of userid in session management userid property.
Fixes no session restarts in KDE 3.1.4.

------------------------
* Linux: handle 2.6.0-test6 sysfs sensors "name" file format change.
Change trying to map sysfs sensor names to be lm_sensor compatible to
mapping lm_sensor names to be sysfs compatible. So, 2.1.20 sensor-config
file is not backwards compatible.
* Patches:
o Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume--at--mahoroba.org> update FreeBSD battery error
handling to recent ACPI changes in FreeBSD 5-CURRENT.

2.1.16 - Wed Aug 20, 2003
-------------------------
* Look for themes: /usr/share/themes/{THEME_NAME}/gkrellm2 and
~/.themes/{THEME_NAME}/gkrellm2. Make gtk2 theme tracking work with
a default theme fallback when a gtk2 matching gkrellm theme is not found.
* Add disks from the config only if enabled so stale disks (from hardware
or partition changes) won't persist in the config.
* Added plugin API to the alerts amd removed gvoice plugin specific code
from alerts.c (a gkrellm2 port of it can use this new API).
* Get swapping data from /proc/vmstat for Linux 2.6 kernels.
* Battery monitor handles composite battery if reported by sysdep code.

-------------------------
* Avoid some config breakage should the locale change:
o Don't write translated "Disk" into the config.
o Scale config saving/loading of floats to avoid writing decimal points.
After initializing from user_config and sensors_config, start using
new config file names user-config and sensor-config since the config is
now not backwards compatible.
* Get disk data from /proc/diskstats on kernels >= 2.6.0
* Patches:
o Daniel Eckl <daniel.eckl--at--gmx.de> gkrellm.spec locale fixes.
o Tilman Sauerbeck <tilman--at--code-monkey.de> add to gkrellm.pc a
"prefix" variable containing the prefix gkrellm is installed in.
So plugins can get an install dir to match gkrellm's install with:
DIR = `pkg-config gkrellm --variable=prefix`/lib
* Bugfixes:
o net timer hours would delay zeroing at timer resets if minutes were 00.
o Sensor and battery substitution variables were not documented.
o Grigory Batalov <bga-at--altlinux.ru> convert utf8 "mute" string in
mail.c to the locale for displaying.
o Fix my misinterpretation of fan_div and leave fan factors at 1.0.
o Let imap folder names have spaces.

o Andrey Borzenkov <arvidjaar--at--mail.ru> update linux.c to handle
2.5 kernel sysfs support of sensors - adds sysfs_sensors_init(),
sysfs_get_sensor(), and sysfs_get_chip_name(). Also adds usbfs to
fs types to ignore.
o Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume--at--mahoroba.org> gkrellmd workaround for listen()
returning EADDRINUSE problem on some machines that are both IPv6 and
IPv4 enabled.

2.1.12 Mon Jun 2, 2003
----------------------
* The 2.1.12a tarball has no code changes, only a patch from
Hajimu UMEMOTO to fix the Makefile to install gkrellm.pc for all
install targets. It also adds a install_freebsd target and makes
some Makefile variables configurable.
* Replace the hours old 2.1.11 to fix a potential segfault if making
a gkrellmd pidfile fails.
* Two display modes (selected with a panel button) for system name when it
doesn't fit: 1) shortened name 2) vertical scroll of kernel name/version.
* Edge resistance to make it easy to move gkrellm to screen edges.
* gkrellmd can send server side local mailbox counts to gkrellm clients.
This is oonfigured in gkrellmd and not on the gkrellm client side.
* Preserve '~' when entered in a local mailbox config.
* Allow simple x.y.z.* as a subnet pattern for gkrellmd allow-host option.
* Periodic saving of net data.
* Some new plugin functions - see plugins changelog.
* Patches:
o Tilman Sauerbeck <tilman--at--code-monkey.de> Makefile generates and
installs a gkrellm.pc file so plugins can use `pkg-config gkrellm`.
o Vincent Bernat <bernat--at--free.fr> set SO_REUSEADDR on gkrellmd
sockets so gkrellmd can be restarted without delays.
o Kacper Kornet <kornet--at--camk.edu.pl> make gkrellmd disable reading
nfs file system data if nfs-interval is set to zero.
* Bugfixes:
o Scale borders of theme images instead of zeroing them if border extents
are greater than image dimensions (avoids breaking some themes).
o gkrellmd nfs file system stats weren't always served.
o Re-render nice data pixmap at cpu chart height changes.
o Draw memory krells in the right order so themes can have an xosview
style multi-colored bar for memory usage.
2.1.10 Sat Apr 26, 2003
-----------------------
* Added INSTALLROOT to Makefile, see INSTALL file.
* Punt on _NET_WM_STATE and send the messages on the map event, so
set_wm_state_hack effect is now assumed by default.
* Patches:
o Valdis Kletnieks <Valdis.Kletnieks--at--vt.edu> Account for Linux 2.5
kernel's new /proc/stat field 'iowait' in CPU time calculation.

description of chart auto combinations.
* Added $cN and $CN variables to inet chart format strings for total
connections over last N minutes (N <= chart width).

2.1.8 Wed Mar 12, 2003
----------------------
* Added many alerts: cpu, load, disk, net, file system, memory, and swap.
Some of these can have the alert trigger delayed for an interval during
which triggering conditions must exist.
* Added some new alert functions - see the plugins changelog.
* New gkrellmd.conf options:
o io-timeout and reconnect-timeout for automatic gkrellm reconnections
to gkrellmd servers. See gkrellmd.conf or "man gkrellmd".
o inet-interval so Linux reads of /proc/net/tcp can be slowed down.
For Linux SMP machines which have a strange feature where a single read
of /proc/net/tcp can for example take 0.7 seconds.
* Made allow multiple instances configurable in the GUI. And added a
Display name component to the lock file when no multiple instances.
* Warn if incompatible -w flag and window dock type option is set.
* Fix battery acpi to handle some variations: files named "status" instead
of "state", and capitalized field descriptions.
* Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume--at--mahoroba.org> patch handles some definitions
which were moved from dkstat.h to resource.h under FreeBSD 5-CURRENT.
* Ben Hines <bhines--at--alumni.ucsd.edu> Darwin Makefile link flag
changes adds bind_at_load and prebind for faster launching.

* Bugfixes
o Christopher Hassell <jeezfrk--at--pobox.com> patch stops some segfaults
by making disk_assign_data() really not reference NULL disks.
o Brian Almeida <bma--at--tux.org> fix to check chart format strings
for NULL to stop some segfaults (it happens when g_locale_from_utf8()
cannot convert a utf8 string to the current locale so this may also
be a user font problem).
o Patrik Modesto <mody--at--atlas.cz> patch changes fopen() to open()
in Linux gkrellm_sys_net_isdn_online(). Beats me why fopen()
wasn't working.
2.1.7a Wed Jan 29, 2003
-----------------------
No code changes in gkrellm proper, but I'm putting up this "a" version because
I got a very needed translation update just after releasing 2.1.7:
* Takeshi AIHANA <aihana--at--jcom.home.ne.jp> ja.po update.
* Oh, and there's Hajimu UMEMOTO's small one liner gkrellmd change to make
the new gkrellmd drop privileges options work in *BSD.

for drives > sda. So removed the patch and fixed the name conversion
in the right place, the disk_name_map[].
o Prevent sensor relocation to Proc or CPU panels when those monitors are
not enabled.
o Bill Nalen fixed a couple of potential Windows memory leaks.
2.1.6 Wed Jan 22, 2003
----------------------
* Net charts appear in sorted order (excepting one linked to the timer).
* Let Linux ACPI battery monitoring work even if no ac_adapter file.
* Patches:
o Andreas Boman <aboman--at--eiwaz.com> had two Linux patches:
- added name conversion from scsi disk major(8) and minor numbers for
devfs systems.
- implemented reading disk stats from sysfs for recent 2.5.x kernels.
o Based on patch by Daniel Gardell <f00daga--at--dd.chalmers.se> make
linux.c acpi_setup() use a dirent scan instead of hardwired battery and
ac_adapter names.
o Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume--at--mahoroba.org> VM_TOTAL define fix for
FreeBSD 5-CURRENT compiles.
* Bugfixes:
o Sensors from a gkrellmd server did not work if there was a locale
decimal point mismatch between client and server.
o Inet monitor connections needed to be reset when reconnecting to the
gkrellmd server.
o Don't use getifaddrs() for net stats on Darwin.
2.1.5 Wed Jan 8, 2003
---------------------
* Added a file lock to help avoid the multiple gkrellm launches by buggy
session managers problem.
* Linux disk chart names are ordered when stats are from /proc/partitions.
* Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume--at--mahoroba.org> BSD changes:
o Based on a patch from Christian Weisgerber <naddy--at--freebsd.org>,
use getifaddrs(3) to gather information for a network meter where it
is available to avoid if_msghdr alignment problem under OpenBSD/alpha.
o For sensor compiles, use changed smd.h location in FreeBSD 5-CURRENT.
o Fix sensors to be compilable under FreeBSD other than i386.
* Bill Nalen <nalenb--at--towers.com> Windows changes:

Removed definition of getpid function (will use Windows version).
Fixed focus setting on left click of icon.
Fixed multithreaded model usage.
Added system tray icon for server version of GKrellM.
* Bugfixes:
o Solaris fixes: gkrellmd compiles when making in the server dir, and
memory/swap monitors did not work because Solaris printf formatting
doesn't grok %L.
o Bad Linux disk monitoring when /proc/partitions had expanded names
such as ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 instead of simple hda1.
* Translation updates
o de.po translation update.
o Jerome UZEL <jerome.uzel--at--wanadoo.fr> fr.po update.
o Grigory Batalov <bga--at--altlinux.ru> ru.po update.
o Przemyslaw Sulek <pbs--at--linux.net.pl> pl.po update.
2.1.3 Fri Dec 6, 2002
---------------------
* If disk stats from /proc/partitions are available, the Linux disk monitor
reports data from all disks and individual partitions listed there. It
takes a recent kernel compiled with .config option CONFIG_BLK_STATS=y.
* Battery monitor can display multiple batteries.
* Cleaned up some theme scaling rough edges: Margins are scaled. Panel
background borders are scaled. Krell yoff values from gkrellmrc are
scaled (yoff values set programatically are not).

o pl.po from Przemyslaw Sulek <pbs--at--linux.net.pl>
2.1.1 Sun Nov 24, 2002
----------------------
* User can set a theme scale for adjusting krell and decal sizes. Do this
with custom font settings if you have high resolution screen squint eye.
Some plugins will need small code updates before their decals can scale.
* Ben Hines <bhines--at--alumni.ucsd.edu> Darwin compile fixes.
* Eric Lauriault <elauri--at--lacitec.on.ca> Solaris 8 compile fixes.
* Bill Nalen <nalenb--at--towers.com> Windows changes: multi cpu reporting
and mail check sockets being left open bug fixes; enable_nls translations
now work; added Windows sysdep code debugging output.
* Various small bugfixes: right pixel truncation of shadow text; cpu chart
autoscaling past 100%; memory leak when loading a theme alternative > 0;
wrong gdk atom function was used in net_wm_state().
* Renamed apm.c to battery.c and replaced "apm" with "battery" in function
names and the sysdep interface.
Made Battery monitor work better if battery removed while running.
* Patches:
o Tom Prado <tprado--at--charter.net> added Linux ACPI battery support
and changed "APM" config references to "Battery".

o Jerome UZEL <jerome.uzel--at--wanadoo.fr> fr.po update.
2.1.0 Sat Oct 12, 2002
----------------------
* New theming features. Left and right areas of chart, panel and spacer
images can overlap onto the left and right frames. If chart top/bottom
margins are set, the margin areas are converted to spacers. These allow
themes to have frame image structure which aligns with charts and panels.
Themes can have "cap" images which are drawn on left and right frames
aligned with monitor top and bottom positions.
See themes changelog and the themes doc for more info.
Bumped minor version to 1 because themes can now be made which won't work
with previous versions.
* Added EWMH options: skip taskbar, skip pager, and floating. Floating
is a recent EWMH addition.
* gkrellmd can detach from its controlling terminal with -d option.
* Bill Nalen <nalenb--at--towers.com> Windows updates:
o Changed sensors list to be fixed instead of read from MBM to fix
issue of GKrellM being loaded before MBM.
o Put icon in systray and removed from task bar.
o Added files resource.c, resource.rc, and gkrellm.ico.
o Updated GTK library which fixed crashes under certain shells.
o Allow loading to slit under Bluebox (bluebox.lokai.net) with -w option.
* Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume--at--mahoroba.org> FreeBSD updates:
o If ACPI is available, temperature and battery information are obtained
via ACPI in the APM monitor.
o Some sysctl() usage is cleaned up.
* Patches:
o Hajimu UMEMOTO added use of daemon() function for gkrellmd terminal
detach in BSD.
o Bill Nalen gkrellmd socksetup() fix when HAVE_GETADDRINFO is
not defined.

----------------------
* Patches
o Peter Hessler <phessler--at--sfobug.org> OpenBSD Makefile changes.
* Bugfixes
o gkrellmd had a nice big memory leak.
* Translation updates
es.po from Cristian Othon Martinez Vera <cfuga--at--itam.mx>
2.0.3 Thu Sep 19, 2002
----------------------
* Rewrote sensors config to use gtk tree store/view. Got rid of the ugly
magic labels and un exported gkrellm_sensor functions which depended on
those magic labels (no plugins I know of used them). If you had temps
or fans located on the Proc or CPU panel via magic labels, you'll need
to relocate them. Temps, fans, and voltages can be re-ordered by a
drag 'n drop in the config.
* Doing the sensors config was such a blast that I kept on and converted
configs for all builtin monitors to use an instant apply. It makes
things like editing chart label format strings much nicer.
* If client mode loses server connection, click on alarm for reconnect try.
* gkrellmd --allow-hosts recognizes keyword ALL, new option --clear-hosts.
* Based on a Solaris patch from David Bustos <bustos--at--caltech.edu>
which adds gkrellm_cpu_add_instance() to the sysdep interface, now cpu
numbers match possibly non-sequential OS cpu instance numbers. The patch
fixes the Solaris compile by adding -lresolv for linking to inet_aton().
* Bugfixes
o Second try at really fixing Gtk2 theme switch frame transparency bug.
* Translation updates
o de.po translation update.
o fr.po from Jerome UZEL <jerome.uzel--at--wanadoo.fr>
o pl.po from Przemyslaw Sulek <pbs--at--linux.net.pl>
o sl.po from Simon Cahuk <simon.cahuk--at--uni-mb.si>
o sv.po from Christian Rose <menthos--at--menthos.com>
2.0.2 Wed Sep 6, 2002
---------------------
* Bufixes
o Linux sensors stopped working for locales where the decimal
point is not a period.
o Side frames lost transparency when a Gtk2 theme was changed.
2.0.1 Wed Sep 4, 2002
---------------------
* Patches
o Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume--at--mahoroba.org> nice patch to add IPv6 support
for client/server connections and passing of inet data. Added
is_valid_reverse() and socksetup() functions to server/main.c. Now
allow_host() checks if reverse lookup is registered in forward lookup.
He also patched apm.c so battery percent display switches automatically
for laptops which return battery time left only when AC line status is
off-line.
o Vladimir Kondratiev <vladimir.kondratiev--at--intel.com> gkrellm.spec
fix to use gkrellm2 include dir and to package server files.
o win32 files update from Bill Nalen.
* Translation updates
o sl.po from Simon Cahuk <simon.cahuk--at--uni-mb.si>

* Added a client mode visual alert if server connection is broken.
2.0.0-pre3 Fri Aug 9, 2002
--------------------------
* Added utf8 <-> current locale fixes so config text from user_config
will be utf8 and strings written with gdk_draw calls will be in the
current locale.
2.0.0-pre2 Tue Aug 6, 2002
--------------------------
* gkrellm_message_window() and gkrellm_config_message_window() replaced
with gkrellm_message_dialog() and gkrellm_config_message_dialog().
* Make can set PACKAGE=name for text domain other than gkrellm,
for example: make PACKAGE=gkrellm2
* Bugfixes:
o gkrellm_message_window() was blocking.
o Changed internet host addresses from the server to use dot notation.
o Disabled bad IPv6 server->client handling.
o Initial inet data from server was omitting already alive connections.
o Usage and debug message output needed conversion to locale from utf8.
* Translation updates
es.po from Cristian Othon Martinez Vera <cfuga--at--itam.mx>
2.0.0-pre1.3 Fri Aug 2, 2002
----------------------------
* One change to help with translation frustrations. Added Jerome UZEL's
bind_textdomain_codeset(PACKAGE, UTF-8) suggestion so translations
do not need to be in UTF-8.
2.0.0-pre1.2 Thu Aug 1, 2002
----------------------------
* David Bustos <bustos--at--caltech.edu> patched solaris.c so Solaris version
will compile. Also changes in server directory so gkrellmd will compile
under Solaris.
* Translation uprades to 2.0.0 strings and utf-8:
o fr.po from Jerome UZEL <jerome.uzel--at--wanadoo.fr>
2.0.0-pre1.1 Wed Jul 31, 2002
-----------------------------
* Nothing here of general interest except for those that want one of the
below translations. Otherwise, this version is a sysdeps setup
affecting Darwin, BSD and libgtop compiles.
* Initialized sysdeps/darwin.c
* Fixed sysdeps/gtop.c so gtop version can compile.
* Makefile updates and no more Makefile links.
* Translation uprades to 2.0.0 strings and utf-8:
o pl.po from Przemyslaw Sulek <pbs--at--linux.net.pl>
o sl.po from Simon Cahuk <simon.cahuk--at--uni-mb.si>
o sv.po from Christian Rose <menthos--at--menthos.com>
o es.po from Cristian Othon Martinez Vera <cfuga--at--itam.mx>
2.0.0-pre1 Mon Jul 29, 2002
---------------------------
* Disk monitor data will be in bytes if supported by sysdep interface.
* Various small bugfixes and cleanups: parts of gkrellmrc config parsing
were failing; better force net config handling from client-server
interface; fs drawer button behaviour modified; put back in --wm command
line switch; utf8 validate text buffer strings; check for badly set
theme image borders;
* Some OpenBSD sysdep touch ups based on a sent in compile log.
2.0.0-pre0.x
------------
* pre0.14:
o Bill Nalen Windows updates:

gkrellm has new options --server and ---port.
This is brand new and I would welcome some testing feedback!
o Added session management.
o Added more major device entries to disk name table.

* Under systems that support ejecting, more ejectable device control added
to file system monitor. If a device is set "Ejectable" in the config,
there will be an eject button which uses an internal ioctl CDROM eject
or an eject command (if installed) for additional devices. Linux uses
the "eject" command while FreeBSD and NetBSD use the "cdcontrol" command.
Ejecting patches for FreeBSD from Hajimu, NetBSD from Anthony, and
Solaris from Daisuke.
* Option to run sensor reads in a thread - for systems with slow sensor
interfaces that cause display pauses.
* Cumulative net bytes transfered displayable with dual trip counters.
* i18n enabled Makefile is default.

by Martin Man <Martin.Man--at--seznam.cz>)
* Bugfixes:
o gkrellm -demo segfaulted.
o CPU sensor decals could be mapped wrong.

o Tomas Ogren <stric--at--cs.umu.se> Solaris disk.c patch avoids adding
not found disks to the disk list.
1.2.3 Tue Oct 23, 2001
----------------------
* Voltage monitor: handles reference voltages for negative voltages for
chips that need it (lm80); better factors/offsets initial values.
New README/gkrellm.1 section explains conversion of lm_sensors compute
lines to gkrellm correction factors and offsets.
* Option to automatically track Gtk theme changes if a gkrellm theme of
the same name exists.
* Minor changes: lo net interface monitoring and > 4 gig memory monitoring.
* Some small bugfixes: apm display, inet scaling, SMP composite CPU %.
* Cleaned out stale debugging statements.
* Contributions:

o Przemyslaw Sulek <pbs--at--linux.net.pl> pl.po translation update.
o Cristian Othon Martinez Vera <cfuga--at--itam.mx> es.po translation update.
1.2.2 Wed Aug 22, 2001
----------------------
* Hostname panel can also display system name.
* Move krells out of the way only if data is displayed in panels,
* Bugfixes:
o Close open files before launching panel commands and net timer command.
o Display and alert setting problems for negative voltages.
o Allow "owner" as well as "user" for fstab mounting.
* Contributions:
o Anthony Mallet <anthony.mallet--at--useless-ficus.net> patch to fix
some compile issues with defining INET6 and HAVE_GETADDRINFO for
Solaris 7. Also made removable disk media ioctl work for
Solaris 7.
o Przemyslaw Sulek <pbs--at--linux.net.pl> sent in a Polish translation.
1.2.1 Wed Aug 2, 2001
---------------------
* Fixed a segfault on SMP machines.
1.2.0 Wed Aug 1, 2001
---------------------
NOTE: Some configuration issues:
o Net and inet command launching will need re-entering.
o Inet charts can't use data saved by 1.0.x versions.
o Plugins that were automatically enabled by being in
~/.gkrellm/plugins will now have to be enabled on the plugins
config page. A consequence of this is that your existing
configuration setup for these plugins may be lost.
* New chart drawing routines give many appearance options which can be
configured by right clicking on the charts. Plugins which create
charts must make some coding changes - see the plugins changelog.
One of these options is a split view which uses a new theme image, so
split views in some themes won't look right until the themes are updated.
* CPU charts can now show nice time, which also uses a new theme image.
* New panel routines so panel and chart interfaces will be consistent, but
unlike chart plugins, meter styled plugins may upgrade gracefully
without a "required" recompile - see plugins changelog.
* Added an alert interface so limits can be set for triggering warn and
alarm commands. Builtin APM and sensor (temps, fan, volt) monitors
can have alerts set. Alerts can use the gvoice plugin.
* User selectable fonts.
* User plugin placements.
* User definable format strings for drawing chart labels.
* Right click on most panels to open the monitor config window.
* There is no longer compatibility with pre 0.10.0 theme formats (the
change was announced a year ago).
* I can no longer provide RedHat 6.x RPMs. The gkrellm.spec is now
included in the source tarball, so in case anyone wants to roll their
own, see the INSTALL file.
* Contributions:
o Yuuki NINOMIYA <gm--at--debian.or.jp> updated his Japanese translation for
this release and fixed a locale bug.
o Cesar Perez Turrado <cesar--at--perez.turrado.com> updated his Spanish
translation for this release.
o Jason Lunz <j--at--falooley.org> patch to add multimua option to mail.c
o Vladimir Kondratiev <vladimir.kondratiev--at--intel.com> - spec file patch.
1.0.8-solaris Sun Apr 22, 2001
------------------------------
* Daisuke Yabuki <dxy--at--acm.org> contributed Solaris code so
monitors now have a native Solaris interface.
-> solaris-4: drop setgid privilege before gtk_init() (for gtk+ 1.2.9)
-> solaris-3: code cleanup and bug fixes.
-> solaris-2: kstat chain scan reduction in cpu.c and suppressed some
unnecessary disk accesses in disk.c
-> solaris-1: fixed Makefiles
-> solaris-0: initial Solaris patch
Note: for version 1.0.8 _only_ there is a separate Solaris tarball since
the only code changes are the addition of the Solaris code and so there is
no need for all the Linux and BSD packagers to make a new package.
1.0.8 Mon Apr 16, 2001
----------------------
* Cesar Perez Turrado <cesar--at--perez.turrado.com> sent in updated es.po
* Bugfixes
o Anthony Mallet <anthony.mallet--at--useless-ficus.net> patch to fix
fonts with XFree86 > 4.0.2
o Composite disk launch commands were not saved.
1.0.7 Wed Mar 14, 2001
----------------------
* Yuuki NINOMIYA <gm--at--debian.or.jp> sent in updated ja.po
* Stephane Gibier <sgibier--at--mail.dotcom.fr> created the gkrellm.1 man page.
* Patch from Laurent Caillat-Vallet <caillat--at--in2p3.fr>. POP3/IMAP
connections can be on non-standard port numbers if you enter
server:port instead of just the server in the config.
* Bugfixes
o imap checking could not handle untagged responses to LOGIN.
o Patch from Joshua Stein <jcs--at--rt.fm> so apm will add itself
under Net/Open BSD
o meminfo label initialization and mua_is_launched fixes.
1.0.6 Mon Jan 29, 2001
----------------------
* Big patch from Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume--at--FreeBSD.org> for several major BSD
improvements which significantly reduces cpu usage. Changes to cpu.c,
inet.c, main.c, meminfo.c, net.c, proc.c., uptime.c. In net.c, he
merged Free/Net/Open BSD code into one read_bsd_net_data().
Anthony Mallet <anthony.mallet--at--useless-ficus.net> added some
adjustments to Hajimu's patch to remove the few remaining Net/Open
BSD specific differences from read_bsd_net_data().
* inet charts can now monitor a range of port numbers as well as the
previous only one or two ports per plot color. Click the new inet
panel button to get a list of current TCP connections being monitored.
Hajimu patched the new connection lookup code to use better networking
code and IPv6 support.
* Bugfixes:
o Search /usr/lib/gkrellm/plugins and /usr/local/lib/gkrellm/plugins
to comply with FHS.
o Make sure GKRELLM_DATA_DIR is created.
1.0.5 Mon Jan 22, 2001
----------------------
* All builtins can now be disabled.
* Kevin Ford <klford--at--uitsg.com> improved the src.rpm package .spec file.
* MH mail checking optionally checks .mh_sequences for unseen mail.
* Bugfixes/cleanups:
o apm decal drawing.
o All builtins now correctly use top/bottom margins.
1.0.4 Mon Jan 15, 2001
----------------------
* Patch from Masaharu FUJITA <fujita--at--hpc.cs.ehime-u.ac.jp> The new mail
krell animation for BSD is now a Daemon.
* Namespace cleanup and removed gkrellm_private_proto.h from the install
and the #include by gkrellm.h. Plugin coders should look at
Changelog-plugins.html.
* Added some hooks so I could write the gkrellm-gnome plugin. With the
plugin, GKrellM gets Gnome session management and can set some window
options (ontop, sticky, skip winlist, skip focus, don't put on taskbar).
* Bugfixes:
o Sensor bugs: Bad temperature updating for comma based numeric locales.
Problem reading negative volt factors from the config.
1.0.3 Sun Jan 7, 2001
---------------------
* Theme and plugin changes in their respective changelogs.
* Added --config suffix option so multiple gkrellms may be run with
different configurations for each. This will override usage of any
host config files previously setup with --force-host-config.
* GKrellM can reload a theme from ~/.gkrellm/gkrellm_theme.cfg when the
"_GKRELLM_READ_THEME" client message is sent.
* Removed on_top option from the config and contorted startup on top
code from main.c. Window managers should handle this function, but
you can still get GKrellM to try to set the hint by: gkrellm --on-top.
This will not work with all window managers - so don't use it. Learn
how to tell your window manager to do this function.
* Patches from Hajimu UMEMOTO: 1) reduce FreeBSD meminfo polling to reduce
cpu usage. 2) drop setuid/setgid privileges before initializing GTK+ to
avoid security hole.
* Gernot Poetsch <gernot--at--mayn.de> contributed a German de.po translation.
* Changed maildir code to not parse filenames as suggested by maildir(5):
Other than skipping files starting with '.', readers should not attempt
to parse filenames.
* Patch from Farooq Mela <f_mela--at--yahoo.com> Added __OpenBSD__ defines
so an OpenBSD native version can be compiled which it turns out is able
to use the existing NetBSD and in one case FreeBSD code.
* Patch from Adam Sampson <ats1--at--ukc.ac.uk> Added MH mail check routine.
* Bugfixes:
o -geometry placement was wrong for negative screen references (-x-y).
o Various voltage monitor stuff: negative voltage displays were at best
hosed, correction values did not allow enough precision, and if space
allows, temperature precision is now .1 degree.
1.0.2 Tue Nov 14, 2000
----------------------
* Cesar Perez Turrado <cpt2--at--geocities.com> contributed a Spanish
es.po translation.
* Added reading fan and voltage data to sensor module for Linux and
Hajimu added it for FreeBSD. Now fan RPMs can be displayed on
the CPU and Proc panels, and there is a separate voltage monitor.
Themers without motherboard sensors should run "gkrellm -demo" to see it.
* Cleaned up mail code and fixed some small bugs.
* Patch from Matt McClure <mlm--at--aya.yale.edu> to add tooltip reporting
of the new mail counts for mailboxes checked via the Mail fetch/check
program.
* Hajimu UMEMOTO sent in patches to use gdk_fontset_load() for the config
info windows.
* Bugfixes:
o Keyboard shortcut theme cycling bugs: theme config sometimes not
marked to save, gkrellm -t bad news.
1.0.1 Thu Oct 19, 2000
----------------------
* Applied some diffs that Pascal Bleser made for his SuSE package so
the Makefile can use gnome-config for libgtop compiles and the spec
file can specify alternate system plugin and theme directories.
* Bugfixes:
o The new fstab mounting check failed to consider that root does not
need "user" fstab permission.
o gtk_set_locale() should be called _before_ gtk_init().
o Fixed conditions for which MUA button should be sensitive since it is
also optionally used for stopping the animations and resetting counts.
1.0.0 Fri Oct 13, 2000
----------------------
* Anthony Mallet <anthony.mallet--at--useless-ficus.net> contributed
NetBSD code so monitors now have a native NetBSD interface.
* Nicolas Rueff <n.rueff--at--libertysurf.fr> contributed a French fr.po
translation.
* Added keyboard shortcuts to cycle through all the themes and theme
alternatives: 'p' is previous and 'n' is next theme/alternative.
Keys 'u' (previous) and 'd' (next) do the same thing except they skip
cycling through any theme alternatives.
* Custom Default theme images for the PMU plugin.
* Mail sound command issued at first new mail count increase of a remote
check instead of waiting until last thread is done.
* Bugfixes:
o smbfs added to remote fs types so it will be checked at the
remote interval. And Linux /proc/mounts reports "." for the mounted
on directory for smbs (don't know why), so added a fallback to using
getmntent() when "." directories are detected.
o IMAP/POP3 mail checking could get confused if complete lines are not
received per read from a mail server, so changed raw reads to
a line reading routine.
o Theme config changes were not written at exit if theme was changed.
o If fstab mounting was enabled, FS monitor did not allow turning off
mount button if "user" option was later removed from fstab.
o The MUA launch button was not desensitized if there is no MUA command.
o Could not disable composite disk chart if no disks found (diskless WS).
o The plugins glist got out of sync if a plugin object file could
not load.
0.10.5 Sun Aug 6, 2000
----------------------
* Patch from Jonas Linde <jonas--at--init.se>:
Changed set_on_top() to help GKrellM honor layer settings that
the window manager may specify.
* Added some functions for plugins - see the plugins changelog.
* Removed "Draw extra info on charts at startup" option. All charts (and
File System / meminfo capacity displays) now have state in the
user_config file.
* Added enable_nls script that simply changes Makefile link to
Makefile.top_enable_nls which compiles with i18n enabled by default.
* Tweaked Yuuki's timer button patch so the seconds are drawn in a
separate text decal so style (font size / color) can match clock.
* Patches from Yuuki NINOMIYA <gm--at--debian.or.jp>:
o Added seconds to the timer button online time.
o Replaced my erroneous use of gdk_fontset_load().
o Added ja.po translation which has translation contributions from
Yuuki and Takeshi Aihana <aihana--at--muc.biglobe.ne.jp>
* Changed read_linux_proc() and Hajimu did same for read_freebsd_proc()
to stat() the utmp file and read it only if modified so disk hits
can be minimized.
* Hajimu UMEMOTO patch to apm.c so operator group not needed for /dev/apm
* Bugfixes:
o For locales with commas for decimal points, sscanf() in
read_linux_proc() could not read load average from /proc/loadavg.
0.10.4 Tue Jul 11, 2000
-----------------------
* More Bugfixes:
o The threading code added in 0.10.3 created joinable instead of
detached threads and this caused a memory leak for each threaded check.
o Theme related buglets in gkrellm_make_overlay_button & draw_inet_chart.
0.10.3 Sun Jul 9, 2000
----------------------
* Added a swap pages in/out chart to the memory monitor.
* Restructured the mail check loop to turn the fetch check into an
internal mailbox type and to use threads for this patch:
* Patch from Michael Bell <mikeb--at--map.com>:
He added routines for builtin POP3 and IMAP mailbox checking and
added reporting of them to the tooltip popup. And added mail counts to
the tooltip.
Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume--at--mahoroba.org> added IPv6 awareness to these routines.
* Bugfixes:
o Fixed sensor temperature reporting to handle negative temps, for cryo
cooling mad scientists,
o Enabling composite Disk in kernel 2.4 did not stick.
o Check for duplicate plugins/themes in /usr/local/share & /usr/share
o Config ctree got out of sync with multiple plugin enables/disables.
0.10.2 Mon Jul 3, 2000
----------------------
* I have two reports of BadDrawables on RedHat 6.2 systems in the root
pixmap transparency code. Don't know why this is, but all this release
does is add a -nt option to disable getting the root pixmap so
people with this problem can get running.
0.10.1 Thu Jun 29, 2000
-----------------------
* Added gravity to plugin placement so multiple plugins requesting
placement at the same location can have more placement control.
* Bugfixes:
o hostname visiblity did not stick.
o `libgtop-config --libs` for libgtop-1.1.2.1-solaris at least does not
provide -lXau for some reason, so added it to Makefile.
o fs/mem/swap format strings yielding string widths less than 1/3 decal
width caused fp exception.
0.10.0 Wed Jun 21, 2000
-----------------------
* Scrolling FS and Mem/Swap panel text can be dragged (borrowed the nice
idea from GKrellMMS). $l added to format string set.
* FS update intervals can be user set and nfs mount update intervals
can be set independently.
* Some had crashes when initially bringing up the config window - fixed.
* Added chart transparency in alternatives 2 and 3 to the default theme.
* Themes can have transparent panels or charts. I don't do an X event
loop and don't know how in Gtk to solicite PropertyNotify for the root
window, so there is currently no transparency auto updating when the
background is changed - it takes a click in GKrellM's top frame.
* Disk charts can handle new Linux 2.4 format and names will be device
names instead of DiskA - DiskD. The composite Disk chart is no longer
overloaded onto DiskA. But I don't know what the status of IDE1 - IDE3
reporting is, so hdc-hdh may still not show up.
Hajimu patched the FreeBSD code to use the new disk naming structure,
and for FreeBSD 3.x or later, 'da0', 'wd1', etc style names show up.
* Added default theme customizations for GKrellMMS and Volume plugins.
* Theme code revised to enable plugins to have monitor specific theme
images and gkrellmrc Style settings just like the builtins.
Side effects of this are:
1) Data structures for image handling changed, so plugins which
directly access the GK struct for images (against policy) may break.
2) A new and clearly final theme organization has evolved :),
but at least all old 0.9.x themes are still handled so there
should be a quiet and painless transition to the new format over time.
* Added a search for themes in /usr/local/share/gkrellm/themes and a
search for plugins in /usr/local/share/gkrellm/plugins.
* No longer need to recycle config window for Info/Help font change.
* Patch from William Carrel <william.a--at--carrel.org> and
Hajimu UMEMOTO <ume--at--mahoroba.org> to cleanup FreeBSD swap code.
0.9.10 Wed May 24, 2000
* A few small bugfixes: Mail animation never turned off if mail fetch
program is check only and continuous animations are enabled. Sensor
temperature display disappeared for some. Hajimu had a patch for
swap usage displays on FreeBSD 4.0 or later.
0.9.9 Wed May 17, 2000
* Development kernels 2.3.99-pre8 and after are changing the format of
/proc/stat. To get CPU charts back, select "composite cpu" in the
config. Disk reporting formats are changing and currently will not
not show hdc - hdh, I assume future patches will address this.
In the meantime, added primitive support for Disk charts under pre8,
but only one Disk chart is available which combines all reported data.
* Added nicer formatting to the Info pages and option to select font size.
* Mem and Swap meters can scroll capacity values like the fs monitors,
and each of these uses a format string for custom scrolling displays.
* Changed fs monitor button behavior: Btn1 (left) now toggles secondary
fs monitor visibility and Btn2 or Btn3 toggles the capacity display.
This is to make overall button behavior more consistent.
* Moved all source to "src" subdir. Better organization for distributions
that might want to overlay an i18n package.
* Applied the ENABLE_NLS and string internationalization code modifications
from Takeshi Aihana <takeshi--at--turbolinux.co.jp>.
* Put Disk command launcher config in a scrolled and now launch entries
are shown only for enabled disks. This avoids the enlarged config
window in case anybody uses my kernel patches to extend kernel disk
reporting to 8 disks (for kernel 2.2.x).
* Added a "comment" entry for each command launch entry so the tooltip
text may be set independent of the command. Killed global tooltip
enable because not needed.
* Patch from Stefan Schlott <stefan.schlott--at--student.uni-ulm.de>:
Added option: If there is new mail, the names of the mailboxes
containing new mail can be displayed in a tooltip.
* Tuneups: don't allow moving if withdrawn. -wm option no longer has
themed frames inside of window manager frames, now only the
window manager frames (so -wm behaves as -wm -wm did). A change in how
I respond to window size configure events to try to stop the growing
window problem when KDE sends incorrect sizes in the configure event.
0.9.8 Mon Apr 10, 2000
* Changed config window to use a ctree listing of monitors to select
configuration notebook pages.
* Put in a default gray frame for command launch overlay buttons because
it appears most theme authors are not making the custom images for this.
* Fixed bug where buttons were not destroyed in gkrellm_destroy_panel().
* make install now installs the header files in /usr/include or
/usr/local/include so users who compile plugins will not be required
to install under the gkrellm source tree or to edit files to set the
gkrellm.h location.
* Changed -wm code window policy because -wm did not work under some
window managers. Now gkrellm -wm -wm inhibits themed frames.
* FreeBSD patch from Hajimu UMEMOTO to use getloadavg() instead of
accessing kmem.
0.9.7 Thu Mar 23, 2000
* Added -m2 option so 2 button mice can side frame shut with left button.
Also, middle and right buttons now open/shut secondary FS monitors,
toggle the inet charts, and toggle tha apm display.
* Patch from Jason Kasper <j_dot_kasper--at--usa.net>: Added option to run
in withdrawn mode for the Blackbox slit.
* Theme alternatives: themes can have multiple alternate image sets
and gkrellmrc files selectable in the Themes tab.
2 alt font overrides are selectable (for high res displays on small
screens where default theme fonts may be too small).
* Plugins are searched for in /usr/share/gkrellm/plugins. These
system wide plugins must be enabled in a "Plugin Enables" config
window before they will be activated. Plugins can be placed after
builtins (previously only placing before was possible).
* Hmmm, animations for maildir new messages were never turned on - fixed.
* Patch from Stefan Schlott <stefan.schlott--at--student.uni-ulm.de>:
Adds a check to avoid double counting old mail with status lines
from Netscape and standard "Status" mail readers. Also adds a check
to avoid counting mime attachments as messages, see is_multipart_mail()
* Secondary FS monitors can optionally remain shown if mounted when
the secondary group is hidden. Now the secondary group can be viewed
as a drawer that FS monitors can be taken out of when mounted.
* FS mount commands can be customized so mounts can be made of file
systems not in /etc/fstab. Using this requires that GKrellM be
run as root or that the user has sudo mount priviledges.
* Changed the FS capacity display from toggling to scrolling and added
option to display in binary units (MiB GiB) instead of default SI norm.
* Patch from Tom Gilbert <gilbertt--at--btinternet.com> allows window
managers to differentiate options dialog from GKrellM itself.
0.9.6 Fri Mar 10, 2000
* Transparency mask now handled at configure_notify events instead of
after pack_side_frames() because gdk_window_shape_combine_mask() was
not working for some people.
* fixed fetchmail -c reading bug when output was: x messages (y seen) ...
Added mailbox status detecting for Netscape mailboxes (X-Mozilla-Status)
* Changed timer command launch logic because some people are getting
stale /var/run/ppp0.pid files left after pppd quits.
* Changed some plugin interface function names and one prototype to make
function calling style more consistent.
* Patch from Kazuhisa TAKEI <takei--at--vinelinux.org>: added a middle mouse
button toggle to show percentage time left on apm panel.
* For Linux, uptime monitor now always reads /proc/uptime instead of
calculating an uptime (which had a fuzzy meaning for laptops that sleep).
0.9.5 Fri Mar 3, 2000
* Net charts can have a label so you can title them with info about who
they are connected to.
* Applied FreeBSD patch from Hajimu UMEMOTO to reduce potential
security risks.
* Tooltips can be enabled for monitors that have a launch command set.
* Bug fixes: changed foreground/background pixel setting for depth 1 GCs
to guarantee foreground pixel is 1.
* Fix from Hideaki YOSHIFUJI <yoshfuji--at--ecei.tohoku.ac.jp> conditionally
defines INET6 so Linux systems using glibc 2.0 can compile inet.c
0.9.4 Mon Feb 28, 2000
* FreeBSD code contributed by Hajimu UMEMOTO ume--at--mahoroba.org
All monitors now have a FreeBSD interface. He also added IPv6 support
to the internet monitors for both FreeBSD and Linux.
* #ifdef'ed out libgtop if compiling under Linux and removed the Linux
dependency on libgtop to fix RPM dependency and compile problems some
were having. Other systems can still compile a libgtop version.
* Bugs fixed: nice cpu time wasn't added to the total cpu time. If Proc
monitor was disabled, restarting and writing config caused a segfault.
0.9.3 Wed Feb 24, 2000
* Patch from Darko Koruga <darko.koruga--at--hermes.si> Feb 24, 2000
Continuous mail animation option as long as there is new mail.
* Added up/down clist moving for fs entry editing.
* Fixed /etc/fstab reading of options if it is last token on line.
0.9.2 Wed Feb 23, 2000
* Fixed net packet reporting bug in 2.0 kernels. Enforced sensors.c
read_temperature() reads to no more than once per 4 seconds.
0.9.1 Wed Feb 23, 2000
* Fixed segfault if there are empty lines in /etc/fstab
0.9.0 Tue Feb 22, 2000
* If hostname specific config files are used, put the hostname in the
X title so the window manager can distinguish between remote GKrellMs.
* Added /usr/share/gkrellm/themes to theme search path.
* Added command launching capability to most monitors.
* Made adding of nice to user CPU usage an option.
* Mail check only mode tries to read the nmh program flist output
for checking MH mail folders and tries to handle yet another
fetchmail output variation. Trapped out MAILER DAEMON internal data
messages.
* Fixed remember position at exit bogus coordinates bug.
* Added decal buttons and frame buttons - replaced timer gtk button
with a decal button. Turned FS mount decals into decal buttons.
* Side frame button 2 instead of button 1 now closes GKrellM.
* Changes affecting plugins, create_plugin() coding style changes.
Some function prototype changes and some function replacement.
* Timer button combo box to allow timer button links to ppp1, ippp0, ...
Changed uptime timer to use /var/run/pppX.pid for ppp types.
* Set up allocation/free checks for images, pixmaps, styles, etc, so
themes and sizes can be changed without restarting. Added keyboard
shortcuts to aid themers: F5 reload current theme, F6, F7 debugging.
* Theme image naming and gkrellmrc structure redefined to purge coding
problems I was having with backward compatibility. Cleaned up
styles.
* All monitors restructured to modularize the data collection parts.
Put in automatic switchover from /proc to glibtop if /proc files
do not exist (for monitors glibtop can service). If no /proc data and
no glibtop calls, monitors do not install themselves.
* Added apm enable for laptops with problems reading /proc/apm
* -demo mode so themers can see all monitors.
0.8.1 Thu Jan 20, 2000
* Fixed bug I introduced into host config code from Dan Mass - sorry.
* Added theme images for slider support.
* Added several gkrellm_xxx() interface functions for plugins.
Added plugins/plugin_example/plugin_example.c as advanced plugin demo.
* Major revision of the Themes document for theme image renaming.
Final non-backwards compatible change planned for 0.8.2
0.8.0 Fri Jan 14, 2000
* Plugin cabability added. Restructured builtin monitor interfaces to
use same interface as plugins - more modular and trivial to convert
a plugin to a builtin.
Coded basic template plugin module.
Adopted gkrellm_ prefix for public functions intended to be
useable by plugins.

added upgrade_warn_message() for this. Changed +data dir to data.

* Patch from Dan Maas <dmaas--at--dcine.com> Dec 22, 1999
Added support for host-specific configs and themes
This is for people with > 1 computer but a shared home directory.
Accept user_config and gkrellm_theme.cfg with a dash and then
the hostnames appended... If I have two computers named abe and bill,
I use user_config-abe, user_config-bill, gkrellm_theme.cfg-abe and
gkrellm_theme.cfg-bill. They will be managed separately by gkrellm,
so you can have different settings for each machine.
