DESCRIPTION

       Whowatch  is  an  interactive  ncurses  who-like  utility that displays
       information about the users currently logged  on  to  the  machine,  in
       real-time.   Besides  standard  informations  (login  name,  tty, host,
       user's process), the type of the connection  (ie.  telnet  or  ssh)  is
       shown.   Display  of users command line can be switch to tty idle time.
       Certain user can be selected and his processes tree may  be  viewed  as
       well  as tree of all system processes. Tree may be displayed with addi-
       tional column that shows owner of each process.  In  the  process  tree
       mode  SIGINT  and  SIGKILL signals can be sent to the selected process.
       Killing processes is just as simple and fun as deleting  lines  on  the
       screen.

       Whowatch  has  no  command  line  options  or  configuration file.  All
       actions are performed in real time by pressing following keys:

       Users list mode:


       'up' 'down'
              cursor movement

       'i'    toggle between user command line and idle time

       'c'    full command line on/off. Disabling full command line  can  save
              CPU  time.   It  can  give  you also some additional information
              about process executable.

       'enter'
              view selected user's processes tree.

       't'    all system processes (init tree)

       Tree mode:

       'up' 'down'
              cursor movement

       'enter'
              go back to users list

       'o'    show processes owners

       'c'    full command line on/off. Disabling full command line  can  save
              CPU  time.   It  can  give  you also some additional information
              about process executable.

       'Ctrl-I'
              send INT signal to selected process

       'Ctrl-K'
              send KILL signal to selected process

       program  tries  to  obtain  pid of a login shell by analizing processes
       controlling terminal and processes names. Under some conditions it  may
       lead  to  incorrect  results ie. there will be incorrect processes tree
       associated with user's session.
