NAME

       xisdnload - ISDN load average display for X

SYNOPSIS

       xisdnload[-toolkitoption  ...]  [-scale integer] [-update seconds] [-hl color] [-highlight
       color] [-online color] [-active color] [-trying color]  [-activate  command]  [-deactivate
       command] [-jumpscroll pixels] [-number regexp] [-label string] [-nolabel]

DESCRIPTION

       The xisdnload program displays a periodically updating histogram of the ISDN load average.

OPTIONS

       Xisdnload  accepts  all  of  the  standard X Toolkit command line options (see X(1)).  The
       order of the options in unimportant.  xisdnload  also  accepts  the  following  additional
       options:

       -hl color or -highlight color
               This option specifies the color of the scale lines.

       -online color
               This  option  specifies  the  background  color when one or more ISDN channels are
               online.

       -active color
               This option specifies the background  color  when  any  route  is  found  that  is
               directed to an interface named isdn* or ippp*.

       -trying color
               This  option  specifies  the background color when at least one attempt to setup a
               cennection is pending.

       -jumpscroll number of pixels
               The number of pixels to shift the graph to the left when  the  graph  reaches  the
               right  edge  of  the  window.   The  default value is 1/2 the width of the current
               window.  Smooth scrolling can be achieved by setting it to 1.

       -label string
               The string to put into the label above the load average when beeing online. It  is
               interpreted  as  a  standard format string and may contain the dialed number (%s),
               the minutes (%d) and seconds (%d) being online, the  actual  cps  rate  (%f),  the
               amount of kbytes transfered (%d) and a connection history (%s) in this sequence.

       -nolabel
               If this command line option is specified then no label will be displayed above the
               load graph.

       -scale integer
               This option specifies the minimum number of tick marks in the histogram, where one
               division  represents  one load average point.  If the load goes above this number,
               xisdnload will create more divisions, but  it  will  never  use  fewer  than  this
               number.  The default is 1.

       -update seconds
               This  option  specifies  the  interval  in  seconds at which xisdnload updates its
               display.  The minimum amount of time allowed between updates  is  1  second.   The
               default is 10.

       -activate command
               This  option  specifies a command to be executed when dial-on-demand is not active
               and you clicked on the xisdnload stripchart. A typical command might be  something
               like `sudo /etc/init.d/isdn start' to start up your connection.

       -deactivate command
               This  option  specifies a command to be executed when dial-on-demand is active and
               you clicked on the xisdnload stripchart. A typical command might be something like
               `sudo /etc/init.d/isdn stop' to shut down your connection.

       -manual With  this  option  the interface is assumed to be active and in manual dial mode.
               The activate/deactive commands are selected depending on the connection state.   A
               typical  activate  command  might  be  `isdnctrl  dial  ippp0',  and to deactivate
               `isdnctrl hangup ippp0'.

       -number regexp
               The supplied regular expression is used to limit the set numbers to be observed by
               xisdnload.

RESOURCES

       See the resource file for the available resources.

WIDGETS

       In  order  to  specify  resources, it is useful to know the hierarchy of the widgets which
       compose xisdnload.  In the notation below, indentation indicates  hierarchical  structure.
       The widget class name is given first, followed by the widget instance name.

       XISDNLoad  xisdnload
                Paned  paned
                     Label  label
                     StripChart  load

ENVIRONMENT

       DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.

       XENVIRONMENT
               to  get  the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources stored in
               the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.

FILES

       <XRoot>/lib/X11/app-defaults/XISDNLoad - specifies required resources.
       /proc/net/route - kernel routing table. The proc filesystem  is  needed  by  xisdnload  to
       detect wheather a dial-on-demand is active.

BUGS

       Certainly a lot.

AUTHORS

       Besides the basic xload stuff, the ISDN parts are added by
       Frank Strauss <strauss@escape.de> (escape e.V., Braunschweig, Germany).  In  January  1998
       Michael  Deindl <olmur@dwarf.bb.bawue.de> contributed the `yellow' patch to make xisdnload
       recognize the phase of trying to connect and show this by a  different  background  color.
       Markus  Pilzecker  <mp@timesink.pilzecker.de>  detected a bug in the color assignment code
       resulting in seg faults which has been fixed in January 1998.
