The output of "pmset -g batt" changed at some point from
"Currently drawing from 'AC Power'" to the slightly different
"Now drawing from 'AC Power'". Starting the match from "drawing"
makes the check work in both old and new versions of OS X.

Would it make sense to try to future-proof this further by searching
only for "'AC" (including the leading single-quote) or just "AC"
(without the leading quote)?

(Genuine question. I don't have a strong feeling about it.)

It's a reasonable idea, although I'm wondering what are the odds of
pmset changing to output a string when running on battery in the
future, containing something like "no longer on 'AC Power'". That's
probably too far out though.
