power status?

[lallous]

Hello,

I suspect that the system in subject (Laptop) is auto shutting down
when it detects that the battery is low.

How to run a manual command to get power status ?
What daemon is usually responsible for such tasks ?

Thank you,
Elias

% apropos power
apm (HW) - bootstrings for advanced power management
exp, expm1, log, log10, sqrt, pow (S) - exponential, logarithm, square root and power functions
exp, log, pow, sqrt (C++) - exponential, logarithm, power, square root functions for the C++ complex library
hasapm (ADM) - check power management BIOS-APM firmware
pwr (HW) - Power Management STREAMS protocol
pwraction (F) - Power Management event service actions
pwrd (ADM) - Power Management event router and servicing daemon
pwrdump (ADM) - display a Power Management event message
pwrevents (F) - Power Management event definitions
pwrsend (ADM) - send a Power Management event message
pwrsh (ADM) - Power Management control shell
uapm (HW) - Advanced Power Management BIOS-APM firmware

All of these, except the two math ones near the top, have to
do with power management.
