WMChargemon project is a simple WindowMaker dockapp that shows, in a clear way, the battery level and the power status of your ACPI-driven laptop.
Low and critical battery levels (on which the applet changes its color) can be set.
It is a really simple dockapp, which shows the percent battery level and the current power state (battery or AC) in a clear and simple way. The background of the dockapp turns green, yellow or red on behalf of the battery level (respectively safe, low or critical).
There is no rc file, and the behaviour of this program can be configured by some command line options, which will be well explained on your terminal when you issue this command (obviously, without the dollar sign):
$ wmchargemon -h
Installation:
1) Ensure you've got the libdockapp development library (at least version 0.6.1) correctly installed.
2) Simply type:
make
and, from a root shell
make install
