XLOAD(1)							      XLOAD(1)

NAME
       xload - system load average display for X

SYNOPSIS
       xload [-toolkitoption  ...]  [-scale  integer]  [-update	 seconds] [-hl
       color] [-highlight color]
	     [-jumpscroll pixels] [-label string] [-nolabel] [-lights]

DESCRIPTION
       The xload program displays a periodically  updating  histogram  of  the
       system load average.

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

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

       -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.

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

       -lights When specified, this option causes xload to display the current
	       load average by using the keyboard leds; for a load average  of
	       n,  xload  lights the first n keyboard leds.  This option turns
	       off the usual screen display.

       -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, xload  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	 xload
	       updates	its  display.	The  minimum  amount  of  time allowed
	       between updates is 1 second.  The default is 10.

RESOURCES
       In addition to the resources available to each of the widgets  used  by
       xload there is one resource defined by the application itself.

       showLabel (class Boolean)
	       If False then no label will be displayed.

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

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/XLoad - specifies required resources

BUGS
       This  program  requires the ability to open and read the special system
       file /dev/kmem.	Sites that do not allow general access	to  this  file
       should make xload belong to the same group as /dev/kmem and turn on the
       set group id permission flag.

       Reading /dev/kmem is inherently non-portable.  Therefore,  the  routine
       used  to read it (get_load.c) must be ported to each new operating sys‐
       tem.
