Peter- Actually, BAT0 is a directory, so you want
put url "/sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/status" into tStatus and what I see on my Thinkpad running linux Mint 17 is status returns one of three states: Unknown if the laptop is plugged into the AC adapter Discharging if running off the battery power Charging if it's (wait for it) charging the battery. If I remove the battery and run the laptop off AC power there is no BAT0 directory. -- Mark Wieder ahsoftw...@gmail.com _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
