NAME
asfsm - the AfterStep file system monitor
SYNOPSIS
asfsm [-showzero] [-bg] [-fg] [-bp] [-z] [-pbg] [-pfg] [-pbp] [-i]
DESCRIPTION
The asfsm application is a file system monitor for the AfterStep window
manager. It displays "raised" horizontal bars representing the percent
used of each mounted filesystem. Filesystems of zero initial block size
are represented as "lowered" horizontal bars that span the entire
window if the -showzero option is used, otherwise they are not shown at
all. asfsm checks the filesystem usage on an interval. Filesystems
mounted between intervals will appear after the next scan. Left
clicking the mouse in a bar pops up a window displaying detailed
information about the filesystem that the bar represents. Left
clicking the mouse in the border or anywhere not occupied by a bar pops
up a window which displays the filesystem names and mount directories
for each filesystem available for mount (excluding NFS filesystems on
sun machines). An icon surrounded by a colored rectangle displays the
filesystem type and status. A red rectangle denotes an unmounted
filesystem, a green denotes a mounted filesystem and a yellow rectangle
denotes a filesystem which users do not have permission to mount or
unmount. A zip disk image is displayed for all filesystems whose
device name contain "zip", a jaz disk image is displayed for all
filesystems whose device name contain "jaz", a Compact Disc is
displayed for all filesystems whose type is "RCKRDG", "ISO9660",
"iso9660", or "hsfs", a floppy image is displayed for all filesystems
whose device name contains "fd", a dos floppy image is displayed for
all floppies whose device type is "DOS" or "msdos", a dos hard disk
image is displayed for all non-floppies whose device type is "DOS" or
"msdod", a networking image is displayed for all nfs filesystems (whose
filesystem names have a":" in them) and an image of a hard drive
platter with a devil on it is displayed for everything else. Left
clicking inside the colored rectangle toggles the mount status of the
filesystem.
CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
-showzero
Shows zero sized filesystems such as /proc.
-bg
Changes background color of the main window.
-fg
Changes foreground color of the main window.
-bp
Changes background pixmap of the main window. Can also be None
which lets the background color show through.
-z
Changes foreground color for filesystems of zero initial block
size.
-pbg
Changes background color of the popup window.
-pfg
Changes foreground color of the popup window.
-pbd

INVOCATION
asfsm can be called from one of many ways. The most common invocation
is the command line:
[user@host] ~% asfsm -b green -f blue -i 3 -pbp Translucent&
Another way to call asfsm is from the window manager:
*Wharf - - MaxSwallow "asfsm" asfsm -b green -f blue -i 3 -pbp Translucent&
This line, when placed in the .steprc file in the users home directory
will cause asfsm a button on the Wharf (1) button bar under the
afterstep (1) window manager.
