/* Simple sway status_command for laptops. Prints the date and the current
 * battery status. Warns using swaynag when the battery drops to an unreasonable
 * level. For every percentage point demise below that level, renags.
 *
 * Should compile without arguments with any reasonable Linux compiler.
 * It should be easy to modify the battery status handling code for other
 * systems
 *
 * example installation and configuration:
 *      cc laptop_status.c -o ~/.local/bin/laptop-status
 *      sed -i 's/status_command.+/status_command ~/.local/bin/laptop-status' \
 *          ~/.config/sway/config'
