Re: [BRLTTY] Low battery alert
Dear Sebastian, Many thanks for the script! It's interesting to know several persons have thought about this problem. And thanks, too, for the info about the ThinkPd, it's a very interesting one, too! Cheers, Shérab. ___ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.

Yes, I do have written a script on my own. It's executed with cron, the crontab
looks like this:
* * * * * python3 /home/user/bin/akkuleer.py
The akkuleer.py (batter empty) is attached. It basically requires python3, aplay
and a file ~/.sounds/battery_low.wav.
Additional plus for this script is, that it can cope both with laptops with one
or two batteries (the newer Thinkpad have two).
HTH
Sebastian

Will give it a try as soon as possible. Perhaps it could even be packaged for Debian & co somehow. Cheers, Shérab. ___ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.

Re: [BRLTTY] Low battery alert
Howdy, weechat from irc.netwirc.tk #a11y IRC wrote an service for doing that with some features. Not sure about the current state nor where the code is located.

Re: [BRLTTY] Low battery alert
Hi Jean-Philippe, Thanks. It can be done that way, indeed. How was your script started? Was it at boot time by rc.local or something like that? And then was it using a while loop to run the acpi command regularly? Or was it perhaps run by cron? I thought there may be some kind of system infrastructure that could be used to make all this easier... Cheers, Shérab. ___ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.

Re: [BRLTTY] Low battery alert
Hi, I had done such script some years ago. It used acpi -b, and cut the result with the cut command. Then, cut result was in a (ariable and if variable had a number lower than 10, it played a sound.
