 +==== NUT ups commands ====
 +  * upsc - lightweight UPS client. Really, set up to be an example of what you can create, but very useful. <code bash>upsc -c upsname</code> will show the clients which are monitoring a particular ups.
 +  * upscmd - send commands to UPS if it will accept. Try <code bash>upscmd -l <upsname></code>
 +  * upsd - This is the primary daemon that should always run to provide information about one or more UPS'. Generally auto started by the init system
 +  * upsdrvctl - standard interface to the UPS drivers. Not generally needed unless you are writing/debugging a particular driver.
 +  * upslog - A tool designed to read one or more UPS' and log the readings. Very useful for upssched if you want a nice log of how your UPS is working.
 +  * upsmon - A daemon which monitors all UPS' defined in upsmon.conf
 +  * upsrw - allows you to change some variables //on the ups itself// if the ups allows it.
 +  * upssched - scheduler to run commands listed in upssched.conf. This is called by upsmon and should not be used directly.
 +  * upssched-cmd - A sample upssched file. A simple shell script that performs commands in response to upssched.
