SYNOPSIS
wmapm [-h] [-display display] [-C CriticalLevel] [-L LowLevel] [-b BlinkRate] [-B BeepVolume] [-A T1 T2]
DESCRIPTION
WMAPM is an APM/Battery Monitor. It is used to visually display and interpret details of APM/Battery status from the system's BIOS via Linux and FreeBSD kernels.
WMAPM is dockable using WindowMaker and AfterStep window-managers; under other window-managers, WMAPM appears as a nicely-sized 64x64 application.
WMAPM provides the following information: battery or AC operation, battery life remaining (both in percentage and bar), time left until battery-depletion (Linux only), charging status, and battery status (high - green, low - yellow, or critical - red) as reported by the the APM BIOS.
