Hi all, A few weeks ago we discussed simple, works-on-all-wmde components like fbpanel. Another one that I like is xbattmon. It's a no-frills battery monitor that presents as a very thin horizontal "gauge" across the bottom of the screen, whether or not you have a panel. Colors and stripe width are configurable. I configured mine to be about 3 or 4 pixels, be green when the computer is plugged into the wall. When not plugged in, it's blue on the left and red on the right: The intersection of the two is how much of the battery is used up.
Unfortunately, I think my color scheme would fail for a color blind person, and xbattmon is one of those tiny programs configured by changing constants in the config.h file and recompiling, so it's certainly not for everybody. But I think golinux could make a nice set of defaults that would work for most people, and I could supply a document to download, change colors, and recompile.
