# Battery indicator for tmux

This is is a little C program to indicate the current battery state and
percentage in the tmux status bar. It is tmux specific as it generates status
configuration colors according to the battery level. 

It supports Linux (using `/sys/class/power_supply`) and FreeBSD with `sysctl`.

Requires a font that includes battery symbols. Iosevka and JetBrains Mono
from NerdFonts have been tested. the output is generated in utf-8. 

Compile with gnu `make` (`gmake` command in FreeBSD) and copy or link the
executable into `~/.local/bin`, which should be on your `$PATH`.

Edit `~/.tmux.conf` and setup the status bar with something like

```tmux
set-option -g status-right " #($HOME/.local/bin/battery)   %a, %d %b  %H:%M "
```

Reload tmux and enjoy!
