In bash, I just grep for "open" in procfs's dir for the LID. It will be a lot more difficult when procfs goes away and you need to get that data over netlink (unless it is in sysfs somewhere). That said, use bash math and the modulo operator. Should be enough. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
