-%description
-AcpiTool is a Linux ACPI client. It's a small command line application,
-intended to be a replacement for the apm tool. The primary target
-audience are laptop users, since these people are most interested in
-things like battery status, thermal status and the ability to suspend
-(sleep mode). The program simply accesses the /proc/acpi or /sysfs entries
-to get/set acpi values. Hence, a computer running a Linux kernel from
-the 2.4.x or 2.6.x series with ACPI enabled is needed.
