man wmbubble () - system load monitor

NAME

wmbubble - system load monitor

SYNOPSIS

wmbubble [options] [program1] [program2]

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the wmbubble command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

wmbubble is a dockapp-style CPU, memory, swap and load average monitor. Based on the GNOME BubbleMon applet, this program has been considerably improved.

The higher the water level, the more memory is in use. The more profuse the bubbles, the higher the CPU usage. There is also a real-time CPU percentage display.

When the mouse is moved into the window, the display will change to show the load history, or, if the right shift is held, the current memory usage. If you press the right mouse button, the window will freeze in that state. You can unfreeze the display by pressing the right mouse button again.

program1 and program2 are the programs to spawn when either the left or middle mouse button is pressed, respectively.
