As it turns out the `IOKit` framework provides a wealth of information and triggers about what\u0027s going on with your computer. With this framework you can get power source information and generate callback when values of these sources change!\n\nGoing a step further, I wanted to define a format that would allow for people to create their own scales! Which you can now do, but it\u0027s strings only for the time being.\n\n## Screenshots\n![](https://d3vv6lp55qjaqc.cloudfront.net/items/2N0v171X0y0z3m0A2M1E/Image%202016-12-17%20at%209.29.43%20PM.png?X-CloudApp-Visitor-Id=137600)\n\n## Installation\n\nYou can either compile the app through Xcode with the sources, or downloaded the latest binary that has been released [here](https://github.com/brianmichel/Juice/releases/latest)\n\n## Adding A Scale\n\n1. Go to preferences and click the \"Add New Scale\", this will attempt to create and open a new `plist` file that can be used by Juice to load a custom scale. The structure of the plist is described below\n2. Make the desired changes to your scale `plist` in your favorite text editor and save.\n3. Go to preferences and rescan for scales, you should now see the title of the scale you just created in the drop down list of scales to pick from.\n\n## Plist Format\n\nThe format currently used to load custom scales is a simple `plist` file, let\u0027s look at the structure of the document:\n\n```xml\n\u003c?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?\u003e\n\u003c!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC \"-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN\" \"http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd\"\u003e\n\u003cplist version=\"1.0\"\u003e\n\u003cdict\u003e\n\t\u003ckey\u003edefault\u003c/key\u003e\n\t\u003cstring\u003eEdit The Default Value To Show\u003c/string\u003e\n\t\u003ckey\u003ede",
