NAME
xfishtank - Fish swimming across your Root Window SYNOPSIS
xfishtank [-c <color>] [-b <limit>] [-f <limit>] [-i <mult>] [-r <rate>] [-m <num>] [-C <num>] [-d] [-p <file>] [host:display] DESCRIPTION
xfishtank is a animation program to simulate an Aquarium on your X desktop. Each fish can have up to 255 colors, but on startup the program takes all the colors from all the fish, and squeezes them down to all fit into the default colormap as best it can. Any fish can be any size in width and height. To make them look more like they are swimming, fish are animated (Very simple 2 frame animation). Fish CANNOT swim over each other, they will turn around if they are about to collide. OPTIONS
-c color Background color of the fishtank -b limit Number of bubbles (Default is set to 32) -f limit Number of fishes (Default is set to 10) -i inter Move interval (Default is set to 0.2) -r rate Move frequency (Default is set to 0.2) -m num Median cut to this many colors -C num Use only this many color cells -d Clip fish, swim on root window -p file Fish swim on picture in file -host:dpy This option specifies the X server to contact.

NAME
bubblefishymon - system load meter with ducks and fish SYNOPSIS
bubblefishymon [options] [program] [program] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the bubblefishymon command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the origi- nal program does not have a manual page. bubblefishymon is a dockapp-style system monitor for CPU, memory, swap, load average and network traffic. Based on wmfishtime(1) and bub- blemon, this program has been considerably improved over the parent code. The higher the water level, the more memory is in use. The more profuse the bubbles, the higher the CPU usage. Fish represent network traffic direction and speed. When the mouse is moved into the window, the display will change to chow the load history, or, if the right Shift key is held, the current memory usage. If you press the right mouse button, the window will freeze in that state until you move the mouse out then back into the window. program1 and program2 are the programs to spawn when either the left or middle mouse buttons are pressed, respectively. OPTIONS
-d disable swimming duck. -u disable upside-down duck. -f disable fish. -c disable CPU meter. -m disable memory screen. -p use alternate colour scheme in memory info screen. -k display memory and swap statistics in megabytes. -n[iface] fish represents network traffic [on <iface>]. -t draw the clock too. -h display help.
