…option Lets users choose how CPU/Memory/Storage values are shown in the menu bar (Percentage, Pie, or Bar), addressing issue runcat-dev#33 by allowing a more compact footprint. Battery gets its own independent style choice (Compact icon-with-inline-percentage, or classic Percentage) since it doesn't have a meaningful pie/bar variant of its own. A thunderbolt indicator appears next to the percentage whenever charging, in every mode.

Context of Contribution
Summary of the Proposal
Addresses #33 by letting users choose a more compact way to display metrics in the menu bar.
Adds a Style setting for the metrics bar with three options for CPU / Memory / Storage:
Battery gets its own independent Battery Style setting (Compact / Percentage), since a pie or bar doesn't really apply to it:
In both battery styles, a small thunderbolt indicator now appears next to the percentage whenever the battery is charging.
Reason for the new feature
Issue #33 asks for a way to show metrics more compactly to save menu bar space (especially useful for users who show several metrics at once or have limited menu bar real estate (e.g. MacBooks with a notch)). The Pie/Bar styles solve this directly, and the Battery style lets users reclaim battery's icon-only footprint without affecting how other metrics are displayed.
All new configuration fields are optional and default to matching the current behavior, so existing users see no visual change unless they opt in.
