0.1.0 to 0.2.0

• luastatus.spawn, luastatus.rc and luastatus.dollar functions have been removed. Use os.execute and/or io.popen instead — and please don’t forget to properly escape the arguments:

  function shell_escape(s)
      return "'" .. s:gsub("'", "'\\''") .. "'"
  end

• pipe plugin has been removed. Use the timer plugin and io.open instead:

  f = io.popen('your command', 'r')
  wdiget = {
      plugin = 'timer',
      cb = function()
          local line = f:read('*line')
          -- ...
      end,
  }
