How did you know that that was the correct action to take for the lid? I 
don't see that sort of thing on the apcid man page. I can see what the 
events are from the logs, and the man page tells me what syntax to use 
to tell it what to do for a given event, but it doesn't tell me what I 
can choose from for any given event.
