Usage

Overview

WMNUT is an UPS Monitor. It is used to visually display and interpret details of up to 9 UPSs status via NUT - Network UPS Tools framework.

WMNUT is dockable using WindowMaker and AfterStep window-managers; under other window-managers, WMNUT should be used with "-w" option to appear as a nicely-sized 64x64 application with a background.

WMNUT provides the following information:

- Status of power supply (Blinking Red/Yellow/Green colored meter/battery),

- Percentage of battery remaining (numeric and meter),

- Load level percentage on output (numeric, if available),

- Runtime to empty, ie time left to battery depletion (MM:SS),

- Communication status with UPS (Blinking Red/Green "C").
