Re: [dwm] displaying things in the statusbar

Here is mine :

awk '
        $0~/remaining capacity:/ { r=$3 }
        $0~/last full capacity:/ { l=$4 }
        $0~/charging state:/ { status=$3 }
        END {
                if ( status!="charged" ) {
                        if ( status=="charging" ) status="|¦|"
                        printf("%00.01f% ",r/l*100);printf status } }
' /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state

This is probably not necessary to do the command every 1 second...
