Extra System Information Configuration? #78

Open prikhi opened 2 years ago

prikhi commented 2 years ago

bd96d1d800e2e025d23755a7d5e2ae770653f8bf added rendering of user, hostname, & current time, but only allows customization of font, size, color, & spacing.

What other configuration would people like?

Maybe we could add a custom format string that uses values like <user>@<hostname>:<session> & then use search/replace to set the tags when running, but really trying to avoid allowing user-specified time format strings - maybe enum options like localtime, localdate, localdatetime, utctime, etc?

+1, I'd like to be able to configure the time format, so I can match it to my Polybar config.

Thanks so much for your work btw, I've been using it for a while now, and I really like it. :)
