Wmtop 0.9.0

Wmtop project is a Windowmaker dockapp that is a mini graphical version of the cpu monitoring utility top.

To compile:

Type make linux or make freebsd depending on which operating system you
are using. (Type uname if you dont know :-)

To install:

If you are superuser type make install

Instructions

Invoke wmtop using the command wmtop

Use -display and -geometry options in the usual way.

Use the command line option -s < time in milliseconds > to control the frequency of sampling of the processes and -r < time in milliseconds > to control how often the display is updated.

Use -U to watch only your own processes rather than all of them. While running, a middle mouse click changes between the display of user processes and all processes.

Use -x < regexp > to exclude processes whose name matches a given pattern from the list.

Use -m to display physical memory usage instead of CPU, but is currently only supported under Linux. While running, a left mouse click changes between cpu and memory display.

Use -c command to have a command executed when you right click on wmtop. For example you could launch a window with the real top command for a closer look at a rogue process.

Use -a < 1..X > to choose a theme for wmtop.

Example

wmtop -U -x ^wm -c "xterm -e top"

Means list my own processes that are not dockapps. Launch top on a right click.
