py3status v2.7

I'm more than two weeks late but I'm very glad to announce the release of py3status v2.7 which features a lot of interesting stuff !

For this release I want to salute the significant work and help of Daniel Foerster (@pydsigner), who discovered and fixed a bug in the event detection loop.

The result is a greatly improved click event detection and bar update speed with a largely reduced CPU consumption and less code !

  • support of %z on time and tztime modules fixes #110 and #123 thx to @derekdreery and @olhotak
  • directive %Z and any other failure in parsing the time and tztime modules format will result in using i3status date output
