       WMNUT - Dockable UPS Monitor

SYNOPSIS

       wmnut  [-A T1 T2] [-b BlinkRate] [-B BeepVolume] [-C CriticalLevel] [-d
       display] [-h] [-l] [-L LowLevel] [-U upsname] [-v] [-V] [-w]

DESCRIPTION

       WMNUT is an UPS Monitor. It is used to visually display  and  interpret
       details of up to 9 UPSs status via NUT - Network UPS Tools framework.

       WMNUT  is  dockable  using  WindowMaker  and AfterStep window-managers;
       under other window-managers, WMNUT should be used with "-w"  option  to
       appear as a nicely-sized 64x64 application with a background.

       WMNUT provides the following information:

       -   Status   of   power   supply   (Blinking  Red/Yellow/Green  colored
       meter/battery),

       - Percentage of battery remaining (numeric and meter),

       - Load level percentage on output (numeric, if available),

       - Runtime to empty, ie time left to battery depletion (MM:SS),

       - Communication status with UPS (Blinking Red/Green "C").

OPTIONS

       -A <T1 T2>
              Send  messages  to users terminals when Low and critical.  T1 is
              seconds between  messages  when  Low.   T2  is  seconds  between
              messages when Critical.

       -b <BlinkRate>
              Blink rate for red LED. (0 for no blinking.)

       -B <Volume>
              Beep  at  Critical  Level. Volume is between -100% to 100%. This
              function has been disabled, at least temporarily.

       -C <CriticalLevel>
              Define level at which red LED turns on.

       -d <display>
              Use alternate display.

       -h     Display help screen.

       -l     Use a low-color pixmap to conserve colors on 8-bit displays.

       -L <LowLevel>
              Define level at which yellow LED turns on.  CriticalLevel  takes
              precedence if LowLevel<CriticalLevel.

       -U <upsname>
              Define  upsname ([upsname@]hostname, default is localhost).  You
              can use up to 9 call to -U <upsname> to monitor multiple UPSs.

       -v     Print version (includes important WMNUT info).

       -V     Verbose mode : display NUT available feature and base value.

       -w     Windowed mode (opposite to  native  withdrawn  mode  for  Window
              Maker).
