NAME

       qnetload - Graphically display network speed and usage

SYNOPSIS

       qnetload

DESCRIPTION

       Graphically display network speed and usage.

       -i, --interface=INTERFACE
              Display network INTERFACE. For example: eth0, wlan0. If unsure, do not specify.

              When  running  the  interface  can be changed by clicking on it. Right-click on the
              interface to list the available interfaces.

       -h, --help
              Display help for commandline options.

       -v, --version
              Display version information.

       --help-all
              Display help including Qt-specific options.

USING QNETLOAD

       Some features on qnetload might not obvious:

         • Click on the interface to change it.

         • Right-click anywhere on qnetload to  display  a  contextual  menu  with  the  list  of
           interfaces,  the  IP  and  the  version. The most common interfaces are in bold (ethX,
           wlanX, etc.).

         • There are two buttons: pause the accumulative counter of Downloaded and Uploaded  data
           and reset the counter. To reset the counters, click twice.

         • Clicking  in  the  graph  will  display how much data has been downloaded and uploaded
           since the position of the click and a projection for the next hour's usage.

         • Hover the mouse pointer over any of the numbers to display the meaning of the value.

ORIGINAL IDEA FROM XNETLOAD

       qnetload has the same look and feel as xnetload, which is no longer maintained. The  q  in
       the name is because qnetload is implemented using the Qt libraries.

FILES

       ${HOME}/.config/qnetload/qnetload.conf
              The  last-used interface is saved here. This will be used the next time qnetload is
              executed.

       /proc/net/dev
              This file, provided by the kernel, contains details of the  network  usage  and  is
              read by qnetload to provide the displayed data.
