# Possible variables to be used:

#                                    given as argument (default is BAT0).

#                                    decimal                                  
#  exec              shell command   Executes a shell command and displays    
#                                    the output in torsmo. warning: this      
#                                    takes a lot more resources than other    
#                                    variables. I'd recommend coding wanted  
#                                    behaviour in C and posting a patch :-).  
#  execi             interval, shell Same as exec but with specific interval.
#                    command         Interval can't be less than              
#                                    update_interval in configuration.        
#  fs_bar            (height), (fs)  Bar that shows how much space is used on
