SYNOPSIS

       xosview [options]





DESCRIPTION

       xosview  is a monitor which displays the status of several system based
       parameters.  These include CPU usage, load average, memory usage,  swap
       space  usage,  network usage, interrupts, and serial port status.  Each
       of these is displayed as a horizontal bar which is separated into color
       coded  regions.   Each  region  represents a percentage of the resource
       which is being put to a particular use.  Typing a  'q'  in  the  window
       will terminate xosview.

       At  the moment xosview runs on seven platforms (Linux, NetBSD, FreeBSD,
       OpenBSD, some Solaris systems, IRIX 6.5 and  HPUX).   Not  all  of  the
       meters  described  below  are  supported on all platforms.  Some of the
       meters may appear different depending upon the platform xosview is run-
       ning  on.   Note  that *BSD is used as an abbreviation for all three of
       the free BSD operating systems (NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSD).

OPTIONS

       Most of these command line options are just a convenient way to set one
       or  more  of xosview's resources.  Please see the RESOURCES section for
       more details on what the resource is for.

       -v
              Displays the version number.

       -name name
              Sets the Resource name xosview  will  use  (same  as  the  -name
              option  for typical X applications like xterm).  When performing
              resource lookups, xosview will look under name, and  then  under
              ``xosview''.   For  an  example, perform the following (as docu-
              mented in README.netbsd):
                       xrdb -merge Xdefaults.stipple
                       xosview -name xosvstipple &

       -networkBandwidth maxbandwidth
              These  options override the xosview*netBandwidth resource.  They
              cause xosview to display a meter that will shows network  usage,
              with  a  maximum bandwidth of maxbandwidth.  Notice that setting
              the bandwidth to 0 no longer  disables  the  meter  --  use  the
              ``-net'' option instead.

                     -xrm "xosview*memFreeColor: purple"



X RESOURCES

       The following is a list of X resources supported by xosview.  Each  has
       a  default value assigned to it.  These values can be found in the file
       Xdefaults which can be obtained in the source distribution of  xosview.
       They   can   be  overridden  in  the  usual  places  (/usr/lib/X11/app-
       defaults/XOsview, $HOME/.Xdefaults, etc.).

       It should be noted that it is OK to have a resource defined for a  port
       of  xosview  that does not support the feature the resource configures.
       Xosview will simply ignore the resources that are set for  it  but  not
       supported on a given platform.


       General Resources


       xosview*title: name
              The  string  that xosview will use for the X window title.  Nor-
              mally xosview will use 'xosview@machine_name' for a title.  This
              resource overrides the default behavior.

       xosview*geometry: geometry_string
              This  is  a standard X geometry string that defines the size and
              location of the X window used by xosview.

       xosview*display: name
              The name of the display where xosview will contact the X  server
              for drawing its window.

       xosview*pixmapName: name
              The  filename  of an X pixmap (xpm) file for use as a background
              image.

       xosview*captions: (True or False)
              If True then xosview will display meter captions.

       xosview*labels: (True or False)
              If True then xosview will display meter labels.

       xosview*meterLabelColor: color
              The color to use for the meter labels.

       xosview*usedlabels: (True or False)
              If True then xosview will display labels that show the  percent-
              age of the resource (or absolute amount, depending on the meter)
              being used.  This option requires that the labels option also be
              set to True.

       xosview*usedLabelColor: color
       xosview*enableStipple:   (True or False)
              Change  to  true  to try stipple support.  This is primarily for
              users stuck with  1-bit  monitors/display  cards.   Try  setting
              enableStipple true.  Please give us feedback on this, if you use
              it.  It needs some more work, but no one has given us any  feed-
              back so far.

       xosview*graphNumCols: number
              This  defines the number of sample bars drawn when a meter is in
              scrolling graph mode. This also has the side-effect of  defining
              the  width  of  the  graph  columns. This is only used by meters
              which have graph mode enabled.


       Load Meter Resources


       xosview*load: (True or False)
              If True then xosview will display a load meter.

       xosview*loadWarnColor: color
              This is the color that the load meter will  use  once  the  load
              average is greater than 1.

       xosview*loadProcColor: color
              This  is  the  color that the load meter will use to display the
              load average when it is less than or equal to 1.

       xosview*loadIdleColor: color
              The load meter will use this color to display the idle field.

       xosview*loadPriority: priority
              This number (which must be an integer >= 1) sets the  number  of
              tenths of a second that the load meter waits between updates.  A
              value of 1 has xosview update the meter 10 times per second (the
              fastest).   A  value  of  600  would cause xosview to update the
              meter once a minute.

       xosview*loadWarnThreshold: int
              This number (which must be an integer >= 1) sets  the  value  at
              which  the  loadmeter changes its status and color from "normal"
              to "alarm".  The default value is 2.

       xosview*loadDecay: (True or False)
              You should probably leave this at  the  default  value  (False).
              The load is already a time-averaged value!

       xosview*loadGraph: (True or False)
              If  this  is  set to True then the load meter will be drawn as a
              horizontally scrolling bargraph showing the state  value  verses
              time.


       CPU Meter Resources


       xosview*cpu: (True or False)
              If  True  then  xosview  will display a cpu meter.  On linux SMP
              machines this will cause a seperate meter to  be  displayed  for
              each  cpu  if  Jerome Forissier's kernel patch has been applied.
              See the 'README.linux' file for more details. On IRIX  6.5,  the
              resource cpuFormat decides which meters are created for multiple
              CPUs.

       xosview*cpuUserColor: color
              The cpu meter will use this color to display the cpu  user  time
              field.
       xosview*cpuNiceColor: color
              The  cpu  meter will use this color to display the cpu nice time
              field.
       xosview*cpuSystemColor: color
              The cpu meter will use this color to display the cpu system time
              field.
       xosview*cpuInterruptColor: color
              The  cpu  meter will use this color to display the cpu interrupt
              time field.
       xosview*cpuFreeColor: color
              The cpu meter will use this color to display the cpu  idle  time
              field.

       xosview*cpuPriority: priority
              This  number  (which must be an integer >= 1) sets the number of
              tenths of a second that the cpu meter waits between updates.   A
              value of 1 has xosview update the meter 10 times per second (the
              fastest).  A value of 600 would  cause  xosview  to  update  the
              meter once a minute.
       xosview*cpuDecay: (True or False)
              If True then the cpu meter will be split vertically in two.  The
              top half will show the instantaneous  state,  while  the  bottom
              half will display a decaying average of the state.
       xosview*cpuGraph: (True or False)
              If  this  is  set  to True then the cpu meter will be drawn as a
              horizontally scrolling bargraph showing the state  value  verses
              time.
       xosview*cpuUsedFormat:     (float, percent or autoscale)
              This  resource  tells xosview how to display "used" labels.  The
              formats work as follows:

              float:
                     Display the value as a floating point number.
              percent:
                     Display the value as a percentage of the total.
              autoscale:
                     Display the absolute value and  automatically  print  the

       xosview*mem: (True or False)
              If True then xosview will display a mem meter.

       xosview*memUsedColor: color
              The  mem  meter  will  use this color to display the used memory
              field.
       xosview*memSharedColor: color
              The mem meter will use this color to display the  shared  memory
              field.
       xosview*memBufferColor: color
              The  mem  meter will use this color to display the buffer memory
              field.

              The  mem  meter  will  use this color to display the free memory
              field.
       xosview*memSharedColor: color
              The mem meter will use this color to display the  shared  memory
              field.
       xosview*memTextColor: color
              The  mem meter will use this color to display the HP text memory
              field.
       xosview*memOtherColor: color
              The mem meter will use this color to display  the  HP  ``other''
              memory field.
       xosview*memActiveColor: color
              The  mem  meter will use this color to display the NetBSD active
              memory field.
       xosview*memInactiveColor: color
              The mem meter will use this color to display the NetBSD inactive
              memory field.

       xosview*memPriority: priority
              This  number  (which must be an integer >= 1) sets the number of
              tenths of a second that the mem meter waits between updates.   A
              value of 1 has xosview update the meter 10 times per second (the
              fastest).  A value of 600 would  cause  xosview  to  update  the
              meter once a minute.
       xosview*memDecay: (True or False)
              If True then the mem meter will be split vertically in two.  The
              top half will show the instantaneous  state,  while  the  bottom
              half will display a decaying average of the state.
       xosview*memGraph: (True or False)
              If  this  is  set  to True then the mem meter will be drawn as a
              horizontally scrolling bargraph showing the state  value  verses
              time.
       xosview*memUsedFormat:     (float, percent or autoscale)
              This  resource  tells xosview how to display "used" labels.  The
              formats work as follows:

       xosview*swapUsedColor: color
              The  swap  meter  will  use  this color to display the used swap
              field.
       xosview*swapFreeColor: color
              The swap meter will use this color  to  display  the  free  swap
              field.

       xosview*swapPriority: priority
              This  number  (which must be an integer >= 1) sets the number of
              tenths of a second that the swap meter waits between updates.  A
              value of 1 has xosview update the meter 10 times per second (the
              fastest).  A value of 600 would  cause  xosview  to  update  the
              meter once a minute.
       xosview*swapDecay: (True or False)
              If  True  then  the  swap meter will be split vertically in two.
              The top half will show the instantaneous state, while the bottom
              half will display a decaying average of the state.
       xosview*swapGraph: (True or False)
              If  this  is  set to True then the swap meter will be drawn as a
              horizontally scrolling bargraph showing the state  value  verses
              time.
       xosview*swapUsedFormat:    (float, percent or autoscale)
              This  resource  tells xosview how to display "used" labels.  The
              formats work as follows:

              float:
                     Display the value as a floating point number.
              percent:
                     Display the value as a percentage of the total.
              autoscale:
                     Display the absolute value and  automatically  print  the
                     units (K, M, or G) as appropriate.

                     The net meter will use this color to display the outgoing
                     field.

              xosview*netBackground: color
                     This is the color that the network meter will use for the
                     "idle" field.

              xosview*netPriority: priority
                     This number (which must be an integer >= 1) sets the num-
                     ber of tenths of  a  second  that  the  net  meter  waits
                     between  updates.   A  value  of 1 has xosview update the
                     meter 10 times per second (the fastest).  A value of  600
                     would cause xosview to update the meter once a minute.
              xosview*netDecay: (True or False)
                     If  True  then  the net meter will be split vertically in
                     two.  The top half will  show  the  instantaneous  state,

                     users will need to have APM or ACPI support in their ker-
                     nels  for  this  to work.  For both, APM and ACPI xosview
                     shows the status/sum of all  batteries.   Additionally  -
                     the legend text gets changed/adjusted to reflect the cur-
                     rent  state  (charging/low/critical/etc.)  of  the   bat-
                     tery/batteries.

              xosview*batteryLeftColor: color

                     This  is  the  color that will be used as 'left' - if the
                     batteries get charged.

              xosview*batteryFullColor: color
                     This is the color that will be used as 'left'  -  if  the
                     batteries  are  fully charged.  APM and ACPI does provide
                     this info, but not all machines actually do so.

              xosview*batteryLowColor: color
                     APM only - the 'left' color that will indicate a low bat-
                     tery.   Depends on the machine - e.g. below 25% remaining
                     capacity.

              xosview*batteryCritColor: color
                     APM case: the 'left' color if  APM  indicates  'critical'

                     meter  10 times per second (the fastest).  A value of 600
                     would cause xosview to update the meter once a minute.
              xosview*batteryUsedFormat:      (float, percent or autoscale)
                     This resource tells xosview how to display "used" labels.
                     The formats work as follows:

                     float:
                            Display the value as a floating point number.
                     percent:
                            Display the value as a percentage of the total.
                     autoscale:
                            Display the absolute value and automatically print
                            the units (K, M, or G) as appropriate.

                     ber of tenths of a  second  that  the  disk  meter  waits
                     between  updates.   A  value  of 1 has xosview update the
                     meter 10 times per second (the fastest).  A value of  600
                     would cause xosview to update the meter once a minute.
              xosview*diskDecay: (True or False)
                     If  True  then the disk meter will be split vertically in
                     two.  The top half will  show  the  instantaneous  state,
                     while  the bottom half will display a decaying average of
                     the state.

                     don't  have any supported RAID devices. xosview then will
                     display n RAID state displays.

              xosview*RAIDdiskOnlineColor: color

              xosview*RAIDdiskFailureColor: color
                     These colors will be used for  indicating  working/online
                     or  failed/offline  disks. The order (from left to right)
                     is the same as in /proc/mdstat.

              xosview*RAIDresyncdoneColor: color

              xosview*RAIDresynctodoColor: color

              xosview*RAIDresynccompleteColor: color
                     If a resync/rebuild of the RAID array is in progress, the
                     "done"   and   "todo"   colors   will   be  used.  If  no
                     rebuild/resync is running, then the "complete" color will
                     be shown.

              xosview*RAIDPriority: priority
                     This number (which must be an integer >= 1) sets the num-
                     ber of tenths of a  second  that  the  RAID  meter  waits
                     between  updates.   A  value  of 1 has xosview update the
                     meter 10 times per second (the fastest).  A value of  600
                     would cause xosview to update the meter once a minute.

              xosview*RAIDUsedFormat:    (float, percent or autoscale)
                     This resource tells xosview how to display "used" labels.
                     The formats work as follows:

                     float:
                            Display the value as a floating point number.
                     percent:
                            Display the value as a percentage of the total.
                     autoscale:
                            Display the absolute value and automatically print
                            the units (K, M, or G) as appropriate.



BUGS

       Here  is a list of known bugs.  Reports of unknown bugs are appreciated
       and should be directed to:
