GNOME Sensor Applet

Author: Alex Murray <pragmatine@gmail.com>

Things to do: 

 - Fix locale problems when using scanf to read sensor values in
   sensor interfaces.

 - Implement the updating of sensor values using g_tree_model_foreach
   which only does work on rows that have no children - so we can
   account for future changes where sensor may be orgainised
   differently (see next point).

 - Perhaps order sensors based on function (ie. Temp Sensor / Fan
   Sensor / Voltage Sensor) within the interfaces.

 - Use gnome-vfs for handling of sensor interfaces, to perhaps later
   extend to monitoring remote machines.

 - Allow rows to be reordered BUT only within the same hierarchial
   group - ie always keep the same parent!


Things that will probably never be done but are nice in theory:

 - Create an events backend, where users can define essentially
   arbitrary events for sensors or multiple sensors. ie. CPU over 50C
   and FAN1 under 1000RPM -> Switch on fan controller.  Alarms would
   then be a generic case of an event.
