These functions take the raw number and a unit and automatically
print it out "scaled down" to a proper SI-prefix, for powers of 2
and 10 respectively.
Apply them to the 2-power cases and keep the 10-power for a later
commit.
Within the components, snprintf() was unchecked and had inefficient
calls in some places.
We implement esnprintf() that does all the dirty laundry for us
and use it exclusively now.
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.
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
