With the recent change to apm -m,
reporting either the battery lifetime
or the estimated time to charge (thank you),
the manpage seems to have been left behind.
While here, tweak some of the wording:
- "in minutes" or "in percent" is not parenthetical; say it explicitly
- surely -a displays the charger status, not the charger
- AC is AC, not A/C, right?
