Apple Style Battery Status

these aren't the original ones, but I tried to make them look like on the mac...

What is to do:

  1. Get a copy of batchmod (see this thread)
  2. put the content of the zip-file into the resources folder. it should look like this: drive:\Path_to\batchmod\resources\Batmeter.dll\content of zip-file
  3. put the original windows Batmeter.dll into the _IN folder. you can find Batmod.dll in your Windows\System32 folder.
  4. run the MODIFY.CMD script
  5. run the REPLACE.CMD script
  6. done

expect more to come, I'm having some fun playing around with batchmod. currently I'm doing a replacement kit based on the ported icons of the RedHat BlueCurve Linux Theme done by I don't know it yet [http://bluecurve.tk]

I've been wanting something like this for a while. I can finally get rid of that ugly blue battery messing with all my pretty black systray icons.

I was redoing the whole job to make it look smoother. I did it for the battery status window but had some problems because of the space available for the systray icons. since I had a loss of 60gb on my notebook 5 days ago because my harddrive went nuts I have to redo and reget anything I had... :rant:
