Created attachment 4754 Show current power usage patch

Hi, I have made a small patch that adds support for showing current power usage (in Watts) next to approximate remaining time. So in panel, it will be shown like:

                                04:25 (9 W)

It is using data from libacpi.c Current power usage will only be shown when on battery (I used !acline check, so I hope it's correct). I have integrated it into remaining time box because i didn't want to create a new box just for this.

I sent this patch also on mailing list: http://mail.xfce.org/pipermail/goodies-dev/2012-November/003521.html
