1.1 root 1: .TH XPERFMON 1 "2 July 1985" "X Version 10"
2: .SH NAME
3: xperfmon - X window system Unix performance monitoring tool
4: .SH SYNOPSIS
5: .B xperfmon
6: option [ option ] [ \fIhost\fP:\fIdisplay\fP ]
7: .SH DESCRIPTION
8: This program allows you to monitor the performance of Unix on a machine.
9: The information will be plotted graphically on a window.
10: The possible options are user cpu time (\fBuser\fP),
11: system cpu time (\fBsystem\fP),
12: idle cpu time (\fBidle\fP),
13: free memory (\fBfree\fP),
14: disk transfers (\fBdisk\fP),
15: interrupts (\fBinterrupts\fP),
16: input packets (\fBinput\fP),
17: output packets (\fBoutput\fP),
18: collision packets (\fBcollision\fP).
19: Any or all of these options can be specified at once.
20: By default,
21: .I xperfmon
22: displays all of these statistics.
23: .PP
24: .TP 8
25: .B \-bd \fIcolor\fP
26: Specify the border color. On monochrome displays, should be ``white'', ``black'',
27: or ``gray''; gray is the default.
28: .PP
29: .TP 8
30: .B \-bg \fIcolor\fP
31: Specify the background color. On monochrome displays, should be ``white'' or
32: ``black''; black is the default.
33: .PP
34: .TP 8
35: .B \-bw \fIpixels\fP
36: Specify the width in pixels of the border around the
37: .I xperfmon
38: window. The default value is 3 pixels.
39: .PP
40: .TP 8
41: .B \-fg \fIcolor\fP
42: Specify the graph color. On monochrome displays, should be ``white'' or ``black'';
43: white is the default.
44: .PP
45: .TP 8
46: .B \-fn \fIfontname\fP
47: The hostname will be displayed in the specified font (if none
48: is specified, this defaults to 6x10).
49: .PP
50: .TP 8
51: .B \-hl \fIcolor\fP
52: Specify the hostname and scale line color; the default is to make it the same
53: as the graph color.
54: .PP
55: .TP 8
56: .B \-rv
57: Cause
58: .I xperfmon
59: to produce all output in black-on-white instead of white-on-black.
60: .PP
61: .TP 8
62: .B \-fw
63: Cause
64: .I xperfmon
65: to produce all output in white-on-black instead of black-on-white.
66: .PP
67: .TP 8
68: .B \-scale \fIinteger\fP
69: Specify the minimum number of divisions on the graph (default 1).
70: .I xperfmon
71: is free to use more divisions if the load gets too high to display,
72: but it will never use fewer divisions than this.
73: .PP
74: .TP 8
75: .B \-u \fIseconds\fP
76: Set the update rate.
77: .TP 8
78: .B =\fIgeometry\fP
79: Allows you to position the window on the screen.
80: See \fIX(1)\fP for a full description of geometry specifications.
81: .PP
82: .TP 8
83: .B [\fIhost\fP]:[\fIdisplay\fP]
84: Normally,
85: .I xperfmon
86: gets the host and display number to use from the environment
87: variable ``DISPLAY''. Either or both can be specified with this option.
88: .I host
89: specifies which machine to create the
90: .I xperfmon
91: window on, and
92: .I display
93: specifies the display number.
94: For example,
95: ``mit-grape-nehi:0'' creates an
96: .I xperfmon
97: on display 0 on machine mit-grape-nehi. Either value can be defaulted
98: by omission but `:' is necessary to specify one or both.
