Carlos R. Mafra bd0d7d1f67 wmmemload: Use MemAvailable from kernel > v3.14 to display memory usage
After the introduction of MemAvailable in the kernel v3.14 one can
estimate how much RAM memory is being "used" by how much it is left
before the system starts swapping.

That is the reason why I want to monitor memory usage, to know
how close the system is to swapping. Therefore I propose to
use MemAvailable to compute the percentage of "used" memory.
Theoretically, after this patch a 100% memory usage is a more
accurate description of "yeah, we need to swap from now on".

See https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=34e431b0ae398fc54ea69ff85ec700722c9da773

================================================================================

wmmemload is a program to monitor memory/swap usages. It is a dockapp
that is supported by X window managers such as Window Maker, AfterStep,
BlackBox, and Enlightenment.

The current memory usage is displayed in the top half.  The swap usage
is in the bottom half. It has an LCD look-alike user interface.  The
back-light may be turned on/off by clicking the mouse button over the
appliacation. If the usage hits a certain threshold, an alarm-mode will
alert you by turning on back-light.

Run `wmmemload --help` or `man wmmemload` for more information.
