Totally not ready for prod, but at least I'm making progress figuring out how to add extra bits to this thing. * add a second widget to the menu bar, next to the title bar * add a new module command to update the battery information * add a freebsd specific Battery module, not linked into the build right now. * amiwm will print out whenever we get battery information from the module. Right now I'm trying to figure out how to get some kind of periodic background event into the module main loop. Launcher does it using cx_broker(), but I dunno if I can adapt that pattern here.
