  I made a little update to the battery script. There was a problem when the battery was fully loaded, it would say 10.00% instead of 100.0%.

  change:

  proc_num=${proc:0:2}
  proc_dec=${proc:2:3}

  to:

  len=`echo ${#proc}`;
   
  if [ $len > 3 ]; then
          proc_num=${proc:0:3}
          proc_dec=${proc:3:4}
  else 
          proc_num=${proc:0:2}
          proc_dec=${proc:2:3}
  fi

  Regards,
  Paul

  Thanks… this was helpful.

  I updated the batteryscript once more… though it still had a bug.

  This is the new script (even updated in the main post):

  #!/bin/bash
   
  maxcap=`ioreg -l | grep Capacity |awk '/MaxCapacity/{print $5}'`
  curcap=`ioreg -l | grep Capacity |awk '/CurrentCapacity/{print $5}'`
   
  curcap=`echo $curcap*1000|bc`
  proc=`echo $curcap / $maxcap |bc`;
   
  len=`echo ${#proc}`;
   
  proc_num=${proc:0:3}
  proc_dec=${proc:3:4}
   
  proc_num_len=`echo ${#proc_num}`;
   
  if [ $proc_num_len == "3" ]; then
          if [ $proc_num != "100" ]; then
                  proc_num=${proc:0:2}
                  proc_dec=${proc:2:3}
          fi
  fi
   
  echo $proc_num.$proc_dec%

  Thanks! The battery works well! As a background to that stat I added this image:

  Thanks again!

  I’m not sure if this is going to embed in the comment correctly, but this is what I came up with after tweaking yours a little. A few notes:
  * I’ve never seen, let alone written, shell scripting, so I’m sure this is really poor. I would love input.
  * Mine is calculating health based on a fixed number in the script. 5500, I think, is the original capacity of my MBP’s battery.
  * I created a cute little battery display. $starcount_size lets you customize how wide the display is.

  Thanks for your original!!!

  #!/bin/bash

  maxcap=`ioreg -l | grep Capacity |awk ‘/MaxCapacity/{print $5}’`
  curcap=`ioreg -l | grep Capacity |awk ‘/CurrentCapacity/{print $5}’`

  procint=`echo scale=2\;$curcap / $maxcap*100|bc`;
  procint_length=`echo ${#procint}-3|bc`;
  procint=${procint:0:$procint_length};

  procprc=`echo $proc-$procint|bc`;
  procprc_length=`echo ${#procprc}-2|bc`;
  if [ $procprc_length -lt 0 ]; then
  $procprc_length=0;
  fi
  procprc=${procprc:0:$procprc_length};

  maxhealth=5500;
  health=`echo $maxcap/$maxhealth*100|bc -l`;
  health=${health:0:2}

  starcount_size=3;
  starcount=`echo $procint/$starcount_size|bc`;
  starcount_totalsize=`echo 100/$starcount_size|bc`
  starcount_inv=`echo $starcount_totalsize-$starcount|bc`;

  echo “[\c";
  COUNTER=0
  while [ $COUNTER -lt $starcount ]; do
  echo “o\c”;
  let COUNTER=COUNTER+1
  done

  echo “Battery: “$procint$procprc%” (“$curcap/$maxcap”)\nHealth: “$health%;

  The script I posted before was missing a line. Sorry!

  Paul, I’m really bad, but the line that says $procprc_length=0; should instead say procprc_length=0;

  I just thought to check the console for errors and noticed a few.. that’s why I noticed the first error and then this one. Sorry. Feel free to delete all of these comments and just put the final, working script online… or edit as you feel fit.

  No worries… I will change the post later and remove the first comment.

  Third time is a charm, right?

  Hi Paul!

  I’ve followed this to a tee and still I only get a display of:

  [battery]

  Nothing more. I’m not sure what I did wrong. I made the file correctly, copied the code correctly, and changed the path correctly. I’m stumped! Can you please email me as I do not check this post often. Thanks!
