This a preparatory patch. Refactor statusbar.c to compartmentalise the drawing of the statusbar "widgets". We can now begin to see what a generalised widget drawing interface would look like. Note that at the moment we don't gracefully handle situations where "widgets" run out of space. That will come as we generalise from here. |

It's based on dwm.
Requirements

In order to build awesome you need the Xlib header files, libconfuse and cairo.

the /usr/local namespace by default).
Afterwards enter the following command to build and install awesome (if
necessary as root):

Running awesome
-----------
Add the following line to your .xinitrc to start awesome using startx
or to .xsession to start awesome using gdm/kdm/xdm...:
