asmon - A system resource monitor dockapp for Afterstep and WindowMaker
asmon [
options]
Asmon is a dockable applet for X11 that monitors system resources. It is
designed for the WindowMaker Dock or Afterstep Wharf but should work with
others as well. It displays CPU usage, load average, memory utilization, pages
and swaps.
The upper most section of the applet displays CPU usage on the left, while
numerically representing load average on the right.
The middle bar shows memory utilization divided by ticks into shared, buffers,
and cached respectively, with the number of megabytes used represented
numerically to the right.
The lower bar displays information about swap, graphically on the left,
numerically on the right.
At bottom left are four LEDs, top to bottom, left to right they are: pages in,
pages out, swap in and swap out. The remainder of the bottom row is dedicated
to a graphical bar representing the amount of memory that the X server is
using with the numerical representation to the right, (optionally this section
can be used to display uptime).
