The screen I looked at is not the same as where nut is pulling the information. I'm looking at a general text status screen (which would be essentially unparseable), but nut issues one command that gives an 80 character wide string of numbers; 4 numbers represent the remaining runtime. I checked, and I see "46m" in the status screen and "0046" in the number string that nut uses. I think the number string that nut is using is documented in the Best manuals; I'll have to find one though to verify. -- Chris Adams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. _______________________________________________ Nut-upsdev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsdev
