  So does the data need to be in _exactly_ the same format as sampled
in do_temperature.c or can there be extra columns and more spaces?
I'd like to add the warn/panic thresholds to the status output for the
computer operators..
But your suggestions does make sense. How about this:

Device                Temp(C)  Temp(F)
&green Motherboard#0      31       87   (Warn: 40, Panic: 50)

i.e. your extra information is inside parenthesis ? I'd just strip
everything from '(' to ')' from the line before processing it, and
then handle the rest of the report as I do now - so you can put
whatever info you like there.
Sounds like good solution..  (...and I was wondering why my rrd
filenames were coming out as `temperature.AMBIENT____________26.rrd 
:D )

Thank You,
