and gives you some nice additional features too. It is intended for
docking in Window Maker.
It currently provides:
.IP \(bu 4
a realtime CPU stress meter;
.IP \(bu
an auto-scaled average system load meter, like
.B xload
and
.BR wmavgload ;
.IP \(bu
a realtime disk I/O stress meter;
.IP \(bu
auto-scaled disk I/O load meter;
.IP \(bu
realtime memory and swap usage meters;
.IP \(bu
a display for system uptime;
.IP \(bu
three user-defined commands to launch.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP

This option specifies the preferred position of clock; see
.IR X(7x) .
.TP
.BR \-l

widget. You can use this to open multiple copies of
.BR WMMon ,
each set to a different mode.
.TP
.BR \-i

average disk load.
.TP
.BR \-s

and uptime.

.TP
.B \-v

.SH USAGE
The
.B WMMon
display can be cycled between CPU, disk I/O, and system
information displays by clicking on the upper-left widget. This
displays CPU information by default.
WMMon can also be used to launch programs. You may click either left,
middle, or right mouse buttons in the average-load section of the
window. The pre-configured program will be launched according to the
mouse button clicked. (see
.B CONFIGURATION FILE
below.)
In order to move
.BR WMMon ,
drag on the outer edges. These are not sensitive to mouse clicks.
.SH "DOCKING IN WINDOW MANAGERS"

.B WMMon
window on the Dock. Then, right-click on the border of the window and
select \*(lqSettings...\*(rq. Check \*(lqStart when Window Maker
is started\*(rq.

.TP
Other window managers
.B WMMon
runs nicely as a 64x64 shaped icon on your desktop.
.SH "CONFIGURATION FILE"
.B WMMon
can launch three user-defined commands, triggered by left, middle and
right mouse button clicks. You can define the commands to launch in
.I $HOME/.wmmonrc
.RS
.PD 0
left: xterm
.PP
middle: xload
.PP
right: xcalc
.PP
.PD
.RE
If
.B WMMon
detects a
.I $HOME/.wmmonrc
file, it will launch the appropriate command when you click on the clock.
The system administrator can define default commands in
.IR /etc/wmmonrc .
The administrator may also choose to \*(lqfix\*(rq particular commands,
making it impossible for users to change. These commands can be defined in
.IR /etc/wmmonrc.fixed ,
although this isn't a nice thing to do.
