       Tired of my phone being the only "easy" way to check the status of my server's UPS, so I'm gonna write my own #BASH script to give me a GUI of sorts with important information.#Linux

       Got the input mostly cleaned up.  Gonna finish cleanup and see if I can't align it the way I want so it all looks easy to read in the window.

       Got most of the cleanup finished.  May see if I can add colored text or something (does Zenity support that?) later, but for now I've got something functional I can double click and quickly get useful information.Thew it up on Gitlab as a snippet if anybody is interested.Link: https://gitlab.com/-/snippets/4873788

       I've modified it to ask for a target server and save that to a hidden config file (~/.apcz.conf) and then read from that for all future runs.  Added some error checking around this to give useful feedback in the event of a problem too.Link: https://gitlab.com/-/snippets/4873788
