wmacpi: Bump to version 1.99r4. Source obtained from http://sourceforge.net/projects/wmacpi/files/. 2004 April 15 1.99r4 Collected fixes for various small issues. * Fixed a problem with placement of the window when using the click to place mode - turned out to be a sizehints problem. * Some fixes to the manpage. * Reenabled the CLI build by default - the Debian patches can handle disabling it themselves. * Added a way to disable the scrolling message, since some users find this annoying. I've left the big changes that are needed (like using libdockapp, in the hope that it'll solve the docking problems) until later, so that I can get these smaller fixes out. Hopefully soon . . .

Renamed wmacpi-ng and acpi-ng, renamed the header files, fixed up the makefile. For the Debian package, also made compilation of the command line tool optional, defaulting to not building it. This is because after the renaming, my acpi clashes with the acpi package that's already in Debian. The command line functionality is now accessible via the -w option to wmacpi. This is wmacpi 1.99, so that I can have a release packaged and in Debian before going to 2.0, so that any bugs that are left can be found by all the extra users.

Source obtained from http://sourceforge.net/projects/wmacpi/files/. 2003 September 23 0.92 Fix a few more bugs, and include an option to allow the user to specify how often to sample the ACPI data - some BIOSes disable all interrupts while reading from the battery, which apparently causes some interactivity issues.

Source obtained from http://sourceforge.net/projects/wmacpi/files/. 2003 July 16 0.90 Make the time display show '--:--' instead of '00:00' when the time remaining is 0 - I think this is reasonable, since it'll only get into this state when the present rate value is 0. This only happens when the battery is fully charged and neither discharging or charging, or when the battery is completely drained. In any of these states the time remaining is of very little interest, so we don't lose anything. We also get to handle the (sadly, very common) case where the ACPI subsystem doesn't report sane values for the things we depend on.

is a program that displays the current battery status in a WindowMaker
dock app, on systems that support Intel's Advanced Configuration and
Power Interface specification (ACPI).
.PP
The program monitors a battery, displaying its current percentage
charge via a bar and a numeric value. It also displays the current
power status for the system, the time remaining (calculated based on
the remaining battery capacity and the current rate of power usage),
and a scrolling message with some hopefully useful information.
.PP
Clicking on the window cycles through the batteries that the ACPI
system knows about.

wmacpi: Bump to version 1.99r5. Source obtained from http://sourceforge.net/projects/wmacpi/files/. 2004 April 23 1.99r5 Collected fixes for the collected fixes below . . . * Manpage fixes, to reflect the reality of the current code. * Code cleanups, to make a few things more sensible. Most notably, the interface for setting the samplerate has changed so that it's no longer inverted and illogical - you now say how many times you want to sample per minute. * Fixed an issue with initialisation - I'd moved the power_init() call below the options parsing code, without dealing with the -m option properly. The end result was that if you told it to monitor a battery number, it would fail saying the battery didn't exist. I moved the check for this out of the options parsing and after the power_init() call. * Fixed a leaking file descriptor in init_ac_adapters. * Implemented a way to handle changing batteries - reinitialise the battery info periodically. I don't know of a better way to do that, since we'd have to do all that parsing anyway to find out if it had changed . . . libdockapp is waiting, but I think that's the only change left without more bug repots . . .

wmacpi: Bump to version 1.99r4. Source obtained from http://sourceforge.net/projects/wmacpi/files/. 2004 April 15 1.99r4 Collected fixes for various small issues. * Fixed a problem with placement of the window when using the click to place mode - turned out to be a sizehints problem. * Some fixes to the manpage. * Reenabled the CLI build by default - the Debian patches can handle disabling it themselves. * Added a way to disable the scrolling message, since some users find this annoying. I've left the big changes that are needed (like using libdockapp, in the hope that it'll solve the docking problems) until later, so that I can get these smaller fixes out. Hopefully soon . . .

wmacpi: Bump to version 1.99r5. Source obtained from http://sourceforge.net/projects/wmacpi/files/. 2004 April 23 1.99r5 Collected fixes for the collected fixes below . . . * Manpage fixes, to reflect the reality of the current code. * Code cleanups, to make a few things more sensible. Most notably, the interface for setting the samplerate has changed so that it's no longer inverted and illogical - you now say how many times you want to sample per minute. * Fixed an issue with initialisation - I'd moved the power_init() call below the options parsing code, without dealing with the -m option properly. The end result was that if you told it to monitor a battery number, it would fail saying the battery didn't exist. I moved the check for this out of the options parsing and after the power_init() call. * Fixed a leaking file descriptor in init_ac_adapters. * Implemented a way to handle changing batteries - reinitialise the battery info periodically. I don't know of a better way to do that, since we'd have to do all that parsing anyway to find out if it had changed . . . libdockapp is waiting, but I think that's the only change left without more bug repots . . .

wmacpi: Bump to wmacpi-ng version 0.50. Source obtained from http://sourceforge.net/projects/wmacpi/files/. 2003 July 6 0.50 Finally got rid of that annoying button - that space now contains a 'B 1' or 'B 2' (only those two at present, since I'm too lazy to fix it so that the number is generic. It should work fine for anyone who doesn't have a freakish system with more than two batteries . . .) A few more code cleanups.

wmacpi: Bump to version 1.99. Source obtained from http://sourceforge.net/projects/wmacpi/files/. 2003 November 23 1.99 Finally claimed the wmacpi name as my own . . . Renamed wmacpi-ng and acpi-ng, renamed the header files, fixed up the makefile. For the Debian package, also made compilation of the command line tool optional, defaulting to not building it. This is because after the renaming, my acpi clashes with the acpi package that's already in Debian. The command line functionality is now accessible via the -w option to wmacpi. This is wmacpi 1.99, so that I can have a release packaged and in Debian before going to 2.0, so that any bugs that are left can be found by all the extra users.
