2 wmload - WindowMaker load gauge
3 Updated, cleaned up and "fixed"
4 ==================================================
7 This is a load monitor which is designed
8 to work with the PROC filesystem. Generally
9 all Linux systems come with the PROC fs.
10 If you're using a different Unix and it
11 doesn't have the PROC fs, first see if
12 there is one available... otherwise this
14 Work is currently underway to produce a
15 more `portable' wmload that Solaris/Sun/HP etc.
18 SUGGESTED INVOCATION (for WindowMaker!):
19 `wmload -shape -withdrawn &'
21 OR for a different graph color:
22 `wmload -led ??? -shape -withdrawn &'
23 ...replace "???" with a color name
24 eg. green, red, orange, yellow, orchid, purple....
25 any of your systems standard X color symbols.
27 SUGGESTED INVOCATION (for AfterStep):
28 To load wmload in Wharf, add a line in .steprc:
29 *Wharf wmload nil MaxSwallow "wmload" wmload -led green -shape &
30 ...or to run it as a normal app: wmload -led "???" &
31 NOTE: AfterStep doesn't require the "-withdrawn" option.
34 The latest release should be available from:
35 http://windowmaker.org/dockapps?name=wmload
38 -Implement alternative `load' algorithms?
