NAME
asfsm - the AfterStep file system monitor
SYNOPSIS
asfsm [-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 inter-
vals will appear after the next scan. Left clicking the
mouse in a bar pops up a window displaying detailed infor-
mation 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 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

-pbp
Changes background pixmap of the popup window. Can

INVOCATION
asfsm can be called from one of many ways. The most com-
mon 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 wharf file in
~/GNUstep/Library/AfterStep will cause asfsm a button on
the Wharf (1) button bar under the afterstep (1) window
manager.
