Name

xapmload - APM battery charge grapher for Xwindows

Synopsis

xapmload [-toolkitoption ...] [-a] [-update secs] [-click-command cmd] [-scale integer] [-jumpscroll pixels]

Description

xapmload displays a histogram of the system's battery charge updated once a second. It also has a label which displays the system's battery charge in percent and, when discharging, hh:mm format (eg "83% 02:32 hrs".) The "-a" options causes xapmload to graph the expotential decay average battery charge. The produces smooth graphs just like xload.

Options

Xapmload accepts all of the standard X Toolkit command line options (see X(1) ). The order of the options in unimportant. xapmload also accepts the following additional options:

-update seconds
This option specifies the interval in seconds at which xapmload updates its display. The minimum amount of time allowed between updates is 1 second. The default is 1.
-click-command cmd
This option specify the command to be executed when the left mouse button is clicked.
-click-command2 cmd
This option specify the command to be executed when the center button is clicked.
-click-command3 cmd
This option specify the command to be executed when the right mouse button is clicked.
-jumpscroll number_of_pixels
The number of pixels to shift the graph to the left when the graph reaches the right edge of the window. The default value is 1/2 the width of the current window. Smooth scrolling can be achieved by setting it to 1.
-scale integer
This option specifies the minimum number of tick marks in the histogram, where one division represents one load average point. If the load goes above this number, xapmload will create more divisions, but it will never use fewer than this number. The default is 1.
