Another idea I forgot to mention is to use syslog, and pipe to scripts.
This would pretty much solve any issues with temperature and battery
monitoring... run every syslog of sensorsd and apmd through a script, and
forget using sensorsd for event commands.

This already happens if the temperature gets too high. See recent threads
on misc@ about this.

I think one problem with using syslog triggers is opening op the risk for
DOS attack if someuser or some internet connection into a service finds a way
to trick syslog to print strings, to.. shutdown a server.

sensorsd(8)'s low goes in the other direction. If I set low to 60C, it
will go off if the CPU is running at 50C. Sensorsd(8) isn't made for such
fine control as some of us would like.
If the battery is low, we want the sensor to alert
It didn't occur to me to set up sensorsd(8) this way, although it makes
perfect sense now. This would also work well for battery monitoring.
Thank you

How about setting low to the warning level, and high to the shutdown

If the battery is low, we want the sensor to alert us. If the temperature
is low, we do not want to be alerted.
