========
A suckless status monitor for DWM written in pure C without any system() calls.
**slstatus** is a suckless and lightweight status monitor for window managers which use WM_NAME as statusbar (e.g. DWM). It is written in pure C without any system() calls and only reads from files most of the time. It is meant as a better alternative to Bash scripts (inefficient) and Conky (bloated for this use).
# Information included
The following information is included:
- wifi percentage
- battery percentage

Multiple batteries, wifi cards etc. are supported and everything can be reordered and customized via a C header file (similar to DWM).
