Battery Status Popup

Just a small example for the use of the DBUS tool notify-send. This one depends on DBUS, powersave and of course the oxygen icons, but that can be switched easily.

It’s designed to be called with a keycombo (I have the symbol on my FN-Keys, but nothing happens) and will pop up a nice window with some information from powersave.

#!/bin/bash
STATE=$(powersave -abc)
echo $STATE
notify-send "Battery Info" "$STATE" --icon=/usr/share/icons/oxygen/48x48/devices/battery.png  --expire-time=3000

Note: The notify-send (and afterwards) part is only ONE line
