Allow build to function from a working directory without a .git/. The…
… git date, hash and url are rendered as - in $&version.

Modify meson.build.

    gc_lib = compiler.find_library('gc')
+   ncurses_lib = compiler.find_library('ncurses')
    readline_lib = compiler.find_library('readline')

-   common_dependencies = [boost_dep, readline_lib, gc_lib, ffi_lib]
+   common_dependencies = [boost_dep, readline_lib, ncurses_lib, gc_lib, ffi_lib]

The INSTALL file's boost minimum version number can be revised to 1.59.

From the collection of library functions written for the xs shell.

bash-4.3$ xs
; . ~/.xslib.d/miscellaneous.xs
; echo <={%linepower}
0
; exit
bash-4.3$

The directory name in the below was adjusted for a specific laptop.

fn %linepower {
            # Return true if the computer is on AC power.
            let (AC = /sys/class/power_supply/ACP1) {
                        if {! access -d $AC} {
                                  true
                        } else if {~ `{cat $AC/online} 1} {
                                  true
                        } else false
            }
}
