NAME
       apm - interface with the APM subsystem

SYNOPSIS
       apm [ -VvmMsSdin ]

DESCRIPTION
       This  command  requires  the  Advanced  Power Management subsystem.  If run without
       arguments it reads /proc/apm and presents the output in a human-readable format.

       Given a -S or -s option it requests that the machine be put into the APM standby or
       the  APM suspend state, respectively.  For a brief description of these states, see
       apmd(8).

OPTIONS
       -V, --version
              Print the version of the program and exit.

       -v, --verbose
              Also print version information for the APM  subsystem.   The  APM  subsystem
              consists  of  power-management hardware, firmware usually referred to as the
              APM BIOS and a driver in the operating system kernel.

       -m, --minutes
              Print the time remaining as a number of minutes.  The default  is  to  print
              the time remaining in "hours:minutes" format.

       -M, --monitor
              Continuously  monitor  and  update the status information.  Assumes that the
              standard output is a terminal.

       -S, --standby
              Request that the machine be put into the APM standby state.

       -s, --suspend
              Request that the machine be put into the APM suspend state.

       -d, --debug
              Print APM status information in a format more useful for debugging.  Implies
              -v.
