This isn't really a powerpc question, so apologies. I'm using xpmumon to monitor my battery charge. I'd like to see a read out from /proc/apm in a console or on my X desktop using root-tail which seems to use a type of "tail -f" system for monitoring log files.
As /proc/apm isn't adding lines to itself I don't know how to monitor it in this fashion other than writing a perl looping script that writes the content of /proc/apm to a log file if the content has changed.
