39 - requires libdexter (http://sourceforge.net/projects/libdexter)
40 and the dxt-sysinfo plugin (svn only at the moment).
42 - dexter_client yes/no
43 - dexter_server yes/no
44 - dexter_config /path/to/libdexter/config (default: $HOME/.dexterrc)
45 - own_window_class <WM Class Name> (default: Conky)
46 - replaces wm_class_name
47 - own_window_title <Window Title> (default: <hostname> - conky)

49 - wm_class_name (use own_window_class, same function)
51 --disable-network (default=yes) with auto-detection for libdexter.

53 HAVE_SYSINFO and others determine if /proc/uptime is used.
54 - silently disable xft, double-buffer and xdamage if no x11.
55 - change enable/disable labels to reflect defaults accurately.
56 - simplified compile-based checks for sysinfo/getloadavg and by moving
57 them into AC_CHECK_FUNCS.

59 - do not pass button clicks through to desktop in this scenario as conky
60 immediately loses focus.
63 * Clarify LGPL license on timed_thread modules.
67 * Split battery variable into two:
68 battery, e.g. "charging 75%" and

84 min_port_monitor_connections
86 max_port_monitor_connections
89 * Added $entropy_avail, $entropy_poolsize and $entropy_bar
90 for the crypto freaks. Idea suggested by Perttu Luukko
91 <nuteater@users.sourceforge.net> in feature request 1497050.
92 * Added max length specifier to audacious_title. Closes
93 feature request #1600631.
96 * Rearrange retry attempts in pop3 and imap code, removing sleep()
97 calls which cause the whole process to sleep, not just the thread.
