Given slstatus is a tool that runs in the background, most likely run
from .xinitrc, it's important to prepend the name of the tool to error
messages so it becomes clear where the error is coming from.
To make this much more consistent, this commit adds warn() and die()
utility functions consistent with other suckless projects and adapts all
calls to fprintf(stderr, *) to the warn() and die() functions, greatly
increasing the readability of the code.
Posix guarantees that the resulting string is null-terminated, even if
we have an overflow. Instead of doing what has already been done,
properly warn when there has been an error or overflow, so the user can
do something about it.
- Use block for single statement ifs
- Keep lines to reasonable length (current debate as to reasonable)
- When functions return -1 for error test against 0 not -1
- Do not indent cases another level
- Do not test against NULL and 0 explicitly
- Use tabs for indentation, use spaces for alignment
For multiple reasons the program is now split:
- Make future porting to OpenBSD easier
- Assign header includes to individiual functions
- Make future program extensions easier
- Recompile only changed parts
