o Enable standby mode in apm utility. You need a newer kernel for this
functionality to work (however, the kernel changes were committed
to current at 1998/07/05 23:29:11 PDT).
o Enable setting of a timer for later wakeup. Note, not all APM
BIOSes support this for all modes (mine doesn't support waking up on
a timer from standby mode).
o Print out the APM capabilities, as reported by the BIOS.
o Report wake on ring indication. No way to enable/disable this, but
it is reported.
o update man page with above
o The output of this command has changed, so if you have a script that
parses its output, then you may need to rewrite it slightly.
o The code attempts to deal with older kernels than July 5, 1998, but
that part of the code isn't well tested.
