fdpowermon is a simple perl script that installs an icon in a system
|
|
tray compatible with the freedesktop.org specification.
|
|
|
|
Every three seconds, fdpowermon calls acpi to find out what the current
|
|
battery level is. It will set the output of the acpi command as a
|
|
tooltip text, and will update the used icon as appropriate.
|
|
|
|
In addition, fdpowermon can optionally call perl subroutines when the
|
|
power reaches a given level. No such subroutines are provided or
|
|
enabled by default, however.
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
- minimalist. The code consists of a good 500 lines, most of which are
|
|
documentation and comments.
|
|
- A power monitor, not a power manager.
|
|
- The ability (not enabled by default) to suspend a laptop on low power
|
|
levels, or do other tasks when the battery reaches a particular level.
