NOTE: Use of this TODO list is obsolete! A list of things to be done is
automatically created by Doxygen. You may create the Doxygen documentation
yourself by running the doxygen command from the docs/ directory.
Ideas for new features can be entered at the IdeaTorrent:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stuff planned for future releases... (in no particular order)
Feel free to help out with any of this stuff! :)
Please send a message to the mailing list if you have any question.
Things for the short term
=========================
- Use non-standard serial baud rates (57600 and higher) only optional.
Things for the longer term
==========================
lcdproc client
--------------
- allow more than one instance of a screen with different configuration
sections (implementation should be possible similar to the one with
the drivers in LCDd where File=... points to the original driver file)
- more options in the config file (clocks with offsets from localtime, ...)
- more options changeable in the lcdproc client menu
- rewrite machine_get_fs() in machine_Linux.c to use functions from mntent.h
- get rid of MTAB_FILE compile time definition (for Linux & SunOS)
lcdexec client
--------------
more flexbibility: do not just only execute commands, but
maybe also display their result in a screen, get a command's
parameters interactively using the builtin input menus,
confirmation of commands, jumping between commands depending
on the output of a command (wizards), ...
Client driver
-------------
An LCDproc client can connect, request the "client" driver, then get
all screen information sent to it! This allows things such as logging
in remotely and starting up a curses display of LCDproc. It also
gives another method for writing drivers. In a sense, it could even
let you write and link in new drivers without having to recompile and
restart LCDproc...
Another bonus is that LCDproc will come with a client which can, for
example, start up a "client" driver to send "keypresses" from the
command line. Or,
lcdtool -key A
would have the same result as pressing a key on the keypad.
