+
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+
+.B wmmon
+[
+.I OPTION
+]
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+
+.B WMMon
+monitors the realtime CPU load as well as the average system load,
+and gives you some nice additional features too. It is intended for
+docking in Window Maker.
+
+It currently provides:
+
+.IP \(bu 4
+a realtime CPU stress meter;
+.IP \(bu
+an auto-scaled average system load meter, like
+.B xload
+and
+.BR wmavgload ;
+.IP \(bu
+hint lines change color as the system load increases.
+.RS
+.IP \(bu
+green for multiples of 1
+.IP \(bu
+yellow for multiples of 10
+.IP \(bu
+red for multiples of 100
+.RE
+.IP \(bu
+a realtime disk I/O stress meter;
+.IP \(bu
+auto-scaled disk I/O load meter;
+.IP \(bu
+realtime memory and swap usage meters;
+.IP \(bu
+a display for system uptime;
+.IP \(bu
+three user-defined commands to launch.

+
+.SH USAGE
+The
+.B WMMon
+display can be cycled between CPU, disk I/O, and system
+information displays by clicking on the upper-left widget. This
+displays CPU information by default.
+
+WMMon can also be used to launch programs. You may click either left,
+middle, or right mouse buttons in the average-load section of the
+window. The pre-configured program will be launched according to the
+mouse button clicked. (see
+.B CONFIGURATION FILE
+below.)
+
+In order to move
+.BR WMMon ,
+drag on the outer edges. These are not sensitive to mouse clicks.
+
+.SH "DOCKING IN WINDOW MANAGERS"
+
+.TP
+Window Maker
+
+Window Maker users should drag and drop the
+.B WMMon
+window on the Dock. Then, right-click on the border of the window and
+select \*(lqSettings...\*(rq. Check \*(lqStart when Window Maker
+is started\*(rq.
+
+.TP
+AfterStep
+
+AfterStep users should put the following in their
+.I $HOME/.steprc
+
+.RS 16
+Wharf wmmon \- MaxSwallow "wmmon" wmmon &
+.RE
+
+.TP
+Other window managers
+
+.B WMMon
+runs nicely as a 64x64 shaped icon on your desktop.
+
+.SH "CONFIGURATION FILE"
+
+.B WMMon
+can launch three user-defined commands, triggered by left, middle and
+right mouse button clicks. You can define the commands to launch in
+.I $HOME/.wmmonrc
+
+.RS
+.PD 0
+left: xterm
+.PP
+middle: xload
+.PP
+right: xcalc
+.PP
+.PD
+.RE
+
+If
+.B WMMon
+detects a
+.I $HOME/.wmmonrc
+file, it will launch the appropriate command when you click on the window.
+
+The system administrator can define default commands in
+.IR /etc/wmmonrc .
+The administrator may also choose to \*(lqfix\*(rq particular commands,
+making it impossible for users to change. These commands can be defined in
+.IR /etc/wmmonrc.fixed ,
+although this isn't a nice thing to do.
