NAME

       wmbutton - dockable launcher application

SYNOPSIS

       wmbutton [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents briefly the wmbutton command.  This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the
       original program does not have a manual page.

       wmbutton is a 64x64 pixel application that displays nine buttons and can be used as dockapp for X window managers  such	as  Window  Maker,
       AfterStep,  BlackBox, and Enlightenment. Each of these buttons can be configured via a configuration file to run just about any application
       you would like to. Basically, if you can type it in a shell command, wmbutton can run it.

       wmbutton is configured using a configuration file, ~/.wmbutton (or /etc/wmbutton.conf). Its format is  documented  in  the  "Configuration"
       section below.

OPTIONS

       -g <geometry>
	      Window Geometry - ie: 64x64+10+10

       -d <display>
	      Display -  ie: 127.0.0.1:0.0

       -f <filename>
	      Full path to configuration file.

       -b <filename>
	      Full path to button xpm.

       -F <font>
	      Custom tooltip font (e.g. -bh-lucidatypewriter-medium-*-*-*-12-*)

       -v     Verbose Mode, gives extra debug output.

       -h     Quick overview of available options.

       -m     Disable Middle Mouse functionality.

       -s     Swap tooltip colors.

       -n     Turn off tooltips.

CONFIGURATION

       The configuration file is case sensitive. A # starts a comment, and lines consisting entirely of whitespace are ignored. The syntax is sim-
       ply:

       <buttonnumber> <command>

       command can be anything you can type in as a shell command.

       Buttons are numbered as follows:

       Left button
		   1 2 3
		   4 5 6
		   7 8 9

       Middle button
		   11 12 13
		   14 15 16
		   17 18 19

       Right button
		   21 22 23
		   24 25 26
		   27 28 29

       To use other icons, wmbutton has to be rebuilt. View /usr/share/doc/wmbutton/README.Debian for further information.

FILES

       /etc/wmbutton.conf
	      system wide wmbutton configuration file.

       ~/.wmbutton
	      peruser wmbutton configuration file. If it doesn't exist, the system wide wmbutton configuration file will be used.

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") inter-
	      face 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.

       ~/.wmifsrc
	      peruser wmifs configuration file.
