Hi!
On 16 October Dmitri Alenitchev submitted the xmobar port:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.ports/26246

It has not been committed yet.
One of the major drawbacks was that the monitoring modules make
extensive use of procfs, so they obviously won't work on OpenBSD.
I rewrote the battery module so that it uses sysctl.
I also updated the example config file to show the usage of the
modified battery module.

An updated tarball is attached.
I only tested it on a ThinkPad T60 running 4.2-amd64, so it would be
nice to see if it works right for other people.

Please note that some batteries report their remaining charge in Ah
while others report in Wh. You will have to include this information in
your xmobar config file by specifying either "watthour" or "amphour".
You can find out what unit your system uses by running `sysctl
hw.sensors.acpibat0`.

Oh and please keep in mind that I'm still a beginner in Haskell, so I
hope the lambda knights among you won't shoot me if I wrote some poor
style code.

Best regards,
Jona
