[Powertop] Any way to show HH:MM for time left instead of just minutes?

[Powertop] Any way to show HH:MM for time left instead of just minutes?

I just upgraded to Powertop 2.0 and I'm frankly I'm disappointed with the
new interface.

It shows how many minutes there is left on my battery (267 minutes), which
is kind of odd that it's not in HH:MM format like the previous versions.

Any way to change this?

You could write a patch that divides the amount of minutes by 60, and
changes the display!

Cheers,

You're absolutely right.
I don't know C++ very well, but I was able to make an amateur patch that
does this.

If anyone wants the patch, here it is (it converts time left to HH:MM on
the display): http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=Df2ttb9e

Hi,
    Thanks for the patch. Next time just include the patch in the mail, 
but for this time I applied it manually.
