Text Module (custom/text)

Using content to specify the text of the module is deprecated in favor of using the same concepts as all other modules (formats and labels).

For example, the following text module:

[module/text]
type = custom/text
content = Hello World
content-foreground = #ff0000

Should now look like this:

[module/text]
type = custom/text
label = Hello World
label-foreground = #ff0000

Because it is set to its default value, the format setting can also be completely left out.

In general, all properties on content also apply the same on label (e.g. background, font), except for offset, prefix, suffix (and their sub-properties). Those three properties have to instead be applied to format (e.g. format-offset).
