NAME

       wmifs - a dockable network traffic monitor

SYNOPSIS

       wmifs [-d <display name>] [-i <interface name>] [-l] [-w] [-h] [-v]

DESCRIPTION

       WMiFS  is  a  dockable applet for X11 that can monitor all your network
       interfaces. It’s designed for WindowMaker’s Dock and AfterStep’s Wharf,
       but  it’s  not  dependant on these window managers and should work with
       any other.  It can display the net load using a standard bar  graph  or
       using a waveform mode. It also displays the state of the interface with
       a group of leds.  Clicking on the interface name will cycle to the next
       interface  in the system. Users can define commands to be executed when
       the different mouse buttons are pressed on the main window.

OPTIONS

       -h     Show summary of options.

       -v     Show version of the program.

       -d <display name>
              Use an alternate X display.

       -i <interface name>
              Interface that should come up initially  when  executing  wmifs.
              If  you  use  "auto"  as interface name, the first active ("up")
              interface will be used.

       -I <interval>
              Sampling interval, in seconds (default: 0.05).

       -l     Starts wmifs in lock mode. Useful if combined with  -i,  if  you
              want  to  monitor a, for example, ppp device which isn’t up when
              wmifs is  started.   It  won’t  switch  to  the  next  available
              interface.

       -s <interval>
              Scrolling interval, in seconds (default: 5)

       -w     Use the waveform graph instead of the classic one.

FILES

       /etc/wmifsrc
              system wide wmifs configuration file.
