I have done a little bash scripting. Nothing advanced mind you.
The issue was that when I set up swm and wmutils I had no way of knowing what my laptop battery was.
I also didn't want a bar.

I just used lemonbar and had a script that was in cron for every minute to check if my battery was below 10%
If it was below 10% it would throw up a popup.

I've been making simple things like this to help keep the bare bones of my wm warm and functional.

Thanks for all the responses though this is amazing.
