RESOLVED How can I know my battery life percentage on my Aspire One?

Hello all! I'm runnig Arch with Openbox on my Acer Aspire One and I wan't to know how full is my battery. Is there an application for that? Or a way to show it on Conky?

Thanks for your help!

Also, if you install the package acpi, you can just

acpi -b

And it will show you an estimate and percentage.
