[COPY] [COPY] --- ROCK-COPYRIGHT-NOTE-END --- [I] Utilities for monitoring your system and processes on your system [T] The procps package contains a set of system utilities which provide [T] system information. Procps includes ps, free, sessreg, skill, snice, [T] tload, top, uptime, vmstat, w, and watch. The ps command displays [T] a snapshot of running processes. The top command provides a [T] repetitive update of the statuses of running processes. The free [T] command displays the amounts of free and used memory on your system. [T] Sessreg is a simple program for managing utmp/wtmp entries for xdm [T] sessions. The skill command sends a terminate command (or another [T] specified signal) to a specified set of processes. The snice [T] command is used to change the scheduling priority of specified [T] processes. The tload command prints a graph of the current system [T] load average to a specified tty. The uptime command displays the [T] current time, how long the system has been running, how many users [T] are logged on and system load averages for the past one, five and [T] fifteen minutes. The w command displays a list of the users who [T] are currently logged on and what they're running. The watch program [T] watches a running program. The vmstat command displays virtual [T] memory statistics about processes, memory, paging, block I/O, traps [T] and CPU activity. [U] http://procps.sourceforge.net/ [A] Michael K.
