Hello, Status bar applets have greatly improved in my Ruby wmiirc[1]:
* Added support for rendering Unicode characters in bar labels. * Support both Linux and FreeBSD in various status bar applets. * Actions and keyboard/mouse controls are now bound to particular instances of status bar applets. This means you can use `self` to refer to the Wmiirc::Status object in your action handlers. * Status bar applet parameters are now (1) written with a '@' prefix in YAML files and (2) are made available as instance variables for use by the Ruby code therein. Cheers. [1] http://github.com/sunaku/wmiirc
