NAME

       bubblefishymon - system load meter with ducks and fish

SYNOPSIS

       bubblefishymon [options] [program] [program]

DESCRIPTION

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

       bubblefishymon is a dockapp-style system monitor for CPU, memory, swap,
       load  average  and  network  traffic.   Based  on   wmfishtime(1)   and
       bubblemon,  this program has been considerably improved over the parent
       code.

       The higher the water level, the  more  memory  is  in  use.   The  more
       profuse  the bubbles, the higher the CPU usage.  Fish represent network
       traffic direction and speed.

       When the mouse is moved into the window, the  display  will  change  to
       chow  the load history, or, if the right Shift key is held, the current
       memory usage.  If you press the right mouse  button,  the  window  will
       freeze  in  that  state until you move the mouse out then back into the
       window.

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