After shaving yaks[1] for a while[2], I figured out how to best solve the problem[3] I had with battery.el. Fixed it, and put it online for your perusal pleasure[4].
[1] Update the kernel to 2.6.0-t6 -> sound isn’t working -> go back to -test4 -> sound works -> rebuild -test6 trident.ko -> sound works -> update xemacs from CVS -> hopelessly broken, go back to stable 21.4.14 -> figure out how to get packages to work -> packages work. Etc, etc, ad infinitum.
[2] but hey, it was fun.
[3] if the output of (shell-command) is one line, it is displayed in the echo area. WTF?
[4] FSVO, of course.
