Hi Elv1313
Thanks for the detailed reply!
I just use the version published in Ubuntu (14.04) – Not sure who would
actually update/add/remove that. Looking to update to 16.04 soon – Will see if
the awesome package has updated in that or if I take your advice and manually
install

Hello,
First, if you use 3.4, please upgrade to something newer. 3.4 is 7 years old
and is _not_ supported anymore and hasn't been since 2012. The git version of
Awesome is currently recommended, the official release is 3.5.9 (from 2012 +
bug fixes until ~2017).
Then, please don't use io.popen. Awesome is single threaded and this block/lock
your whole X11 session (all application and mouse/keyboard events) while the
command is being executed. Newer Awesome version have either LGI async API or,
in case of the git version of awesome, awful.spawn async functions.
1) Get system messages / “wall” notifications to display as a popup
(naughty.notify)
naughty.notify is the correct API
3) Is “iif” supported? [if so, what have I done wrong]
Yes, there is:
local result = condition1 and object_when_true or object_when_false
local first_non_false_or_nil_object = object1 or object2 or object3 or object4
lua syntax is very consistent and small, but, beside switch(), everything is
there for sequential, object and functional programming
4) Graphical (possibly using Bashets as suggested by Riccardo)
The Awesome 3.4 graphical API has been replaced. The current API documentation
is here
http://new.awesomewm.org/apidoc/documentation/03-declarative-layout.md.html
5) Suggested improvements?
See above

Hi David,
Could you check if upowerd could see your UPS ? Run 'upower -d' in
your terminal and look if it has information about UPS status.
If upower provides information about UPS status, you can use widget
https://github.com/lexa/awesome_upower_battery . It grabs information
from upowerd via DBus and displays battery status and charge
percentage.
