NAME

       wmcpuload - A dockapp to display CPU usage

SYNOPSIS

       wmcpuload [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly the wmcpuload command.  This manual
       page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution.

       WMCPULoad is a dockapp that is supported by X window managers  such  as
       Window  Maker,  AfterStep, BlackBox, and Enlightenment. It displays the
       current CPU usage, expressed as a percentile and a chart,  and  has  an
       LCD  look-alike  user interface. The back-light may be turned on/off by
       clicking the mouse button over the application. If the CPU usage hits a
       certain  threshold,  an  alarm-mode  will alert you by turning on back-
       light.
