Modular dwm status bar in Rust
I've seen these done a couple of times however my aim of simple_status (https://github.com/KJ002/simple_status) was to provide an easily configurable and efficient modular bar. I chose Rust because it is safe, efficient and has pretty good C interoperability so that I can interface with the X11 C API and set the status directly through this rather than piping the output into `xsetroot` which is much more efficient. The configuration is also quite diverse allowing you to have a custom delay per module and even choose not for a module to update at all. This is the initial release of Version 0.1.5 however it is stable, all that needs to be expanded upon is the configuration.

[OC] New tool for dwm status bar written in Rust
Why do you spawn a shell running date to get the date in the given format instead of using the library included in rust, which seems to support the same strftime format string as date does?
