Hi Stuart,
Not displaying a widget is not an easily overlooked bug. Are you sure
it is a bug in 0.20? In that case nothing could have worked there with
myhtui. That would also explain the lack of ported plugins;-)

How easy is it to put 0.20 and 0.21 side by side on one machine?
Alternatively, I will work on a 0.20 plugin and port it to mythui
later, but I'd rather do it right the first time.
