wmtop SYNOPSIS
wmtop [-c command] [-U] [-x regexp] [-m] DESCRIPTION
wmtop displays, as a WindowMaker dockapp, the CPU usage of the top 3 processes satisfying user supplied criteria. OPTIONS
-U displays processes owned only for the current user. -c command Execute command when dockapp is double clicked. -x regexp Exclude processes whose name matches the given regular expression. The regular expression need only match part of the process name. Use '^' to mean the start of the name and '$' to mean the end. -m Show (physical) memory usage rather than CPU usage. (Linux only) -s Set interval between process samples in milliseconds. -r Set interval between screen updates in milliseconds. EXAMPLES
Monitor only users processesr, exclude WindowMaker dock apps and pop up xps when double clicked: wmtop -c xps -U -x '^wm' where we assume dock apps all have names starting with 'wm'. BUGS
