Portrait: Luis Villa, from Bugzilla to bar association

Fri, 18 Apr 2008 18:00:00 GMT
In 10 years, Luis Villa has seen his career expand side by side with free and open source software (FOSS). Starting as bugmaster at Ximian, one of the companies that shaped GNOME as we know it today, he has been a mid-level manager at Novell, the coordinator of testing with the GNOME project, and a frequent member of the GNOME Foundation Board. More recently, Villa has been a student at Harvard Law School. When he graduates, he hopes to use his knowledge of how FOSS and business interact to benefit both.

XAPM(1) 						     Linux Programmer's Manual							   XAPM(1)

NAME
xapm - display Advanced Power Management (APM) BIOS information SYNOPSIS
xapm [ ... ] DESCRIPTION
xapm puts up an X window that displays the remaining battery life. The left side of the window contains a printed time or percentage, and the right side of the window contains a bar indicating the percentage. Clicking on the left side of the window will toggle the display between time and percent. OPTIONS AND RESOURCES
In addition to standard Xt options, the following options are available: -V Print version and exit. -highcolor color The color of the bar when the battery percentage is above highvalue. Defaults to "green". (*highColor) -lowcolor color The color of the bar when the battery percentage is between lowvalue and highvalue. Defaults to "yellow". (*lowColor) -criticalcolor color The color of the bar when the battery percentage is below lowvalue. Defaults to "red". This color is also used to flash the alphanumeric part of the display when the power status is critical. (*criticalCOlor) -highvalue highvalue Set highvalue. The default is 50. (*highValue) -lowvalue lowvalue Set lowvalue. The default is 10. (*lowValue) -chargingcolor color The color of the printed display when charging. The default is "blue". Use -foreground to change the color used when on battery power. (*chargingColor) -delay delay Sets the number of seconds delay between each update. The default is 1. (*delay) -percent Display percentage on startup, instead of time remaining. (*percent, boolean) BUGS
There is no way to inhibit the alphanumeric display or the bar display. When the battery percentage is low, using a bright color to warn you of impending doom may be futile because the bar is too short. Because of the form widget's desire to maintain proportions, dynamic resizing of the window may not do what you want it to do. FILES
