                      Ah! Thanks! I might find "hibernate" on my
                        own: why would a user use this command rather
                        than saving and booting up? and How does it know
                        that to look for the memory?

              Note however that Linux support for this is pretty
                limited/ buggy and I would recommend you don't do it.

              
    That has been my experience over the years.  Though not that this is
    the standard behaviour on a drained battery; to hibernate.  So it is
    good to be sure it works, or change the low battery behaviour to
    poweroff.
